Pros

National benefits offered by large companies offered to staff Flexible working Discount staff

Cons

Management have poor people skills and senior Management spend more time in offices or having breaks than on shop floor. When managers are called to help at front of store they pass the book onto section leaders some of whom have adopted a poor, rude, abrupt attitude . Bullying environment which if reported is not dealt with professionally. With information spreading around the store within days. Clingy and unprofessional groups between some management and staff making some staff uncomfortable to approach when they have a problem. Complete lack of discretion in offices and warehouse back ups, as personal information gets gossiped about and leaked.

Pros

The best part of my job is meeting new people, I've made some good friends and met some great customers.

Cons

I feel like a number and that's it. Never encouraged to do better. Management is as backstabbing as the colleagues and are useless when dealing with bullying, harassment, intimidation and discrimination. I've witnessed so many colleagues and managers do wrong but feel I can't say anything because they never helped me on passed occasions where I was subject to bullying. I've reported to head office before and they pay no attention. This negativity can not be said for all stores since I haven't worked in all of them but the store I work in has been through 2 GSM's and many managers and section leaders for me to think they're mostly all the same.

Pros

There are absolutely no pros to working with this company, diabolical hourly rate for online pickers, on your feet for 4 hours before getting a 20 mins break, and all for minimum wage? Picking rate is 110 items per hour, and woe betide anyone who falls below that !!! It's like working for Scrooge, and now more divisions added to Ambient section to collect? for the same money....absolutely disgusting

Cons

See Pros !! - Lull you into a false sense of security
