Pros

Flexible working hours, AMAZING people and the team, free uniforms (which sometimes are just horrible, uncomfy and it's just impossible to wear them)

Cons

1.They are changing your shifts and don't inform you - then they will call you in the morning asking why you are not work and telling that you have to check the rota all the time and forcing you to come anyways. 2. All of those managers from Spain coming every week or month just to stay over the phone for the whole day, tell you off, show off their position and put you under pressure. They expect you to know everything and be always ready to fulfil their wishes while they are just literally doing nothing and talking Spanish all the time - if you dont know Spanish they will just alk about you in their language and then smiling at you like they are not offending you. They even dont speak a sort of good English but claim to be the bosses and the kings. 3. NO ROOM FOR GROWING, trust me - if you are good they will force you to overwork, do overtime and just overuse you without any pay rise or anything. If you become the responsible you still have the same pay rate but you have to do your work hundred times more. Its just ridicolous how they brainwash their employees by telling they have opportunities - we dont have any! - if they want a manager they will recruit them externally or just simply send someone from Spain. If you are good and want to transfer to another store they will not let you. 4. HUGE rotation of employees - I dont anyone who worked as the sales assistant for more than 2 years! The managers are rotated all the times. I was working only 1 year and meantime I had about 3 new STORE managers, 1 new DEPUTY, dozen of VMS, SA and cashiers. Its just sad - people cry and give the notice as they are literally dying during the duties. 5. They dont challenge you, they dont give you any new duties any space for creativity - will always put you in one zone for the whole life or sometimes they will let you go to the stockroom. 6. MOST IMPORTANT - they pretend that the store is awesome, that this is luxury and there are million of girls dying dor this job - trust me, there are not. They have huge problems in their Human Resources as there are people constantly living. Unless they have no choice to leave. Everyone is upset with the job and wants to leave but sometimes they have nowhere to go... Really sad. 7. I could give you more examples, but if you are looking just to have a job for a short time just go ahead but keep in mind looking for the alternative

Pros

They don't mind whether you are experienced or not. They will hire you if they like u, if look pretty and tall you can be a manager even if ur dumb doing retail activities such as VM, reports. As long as you have the guts you can be on top.

Cons

THEY TREAT YOU LIKE ROBOTS. They push you to work with a very minimal manpower. They threatened staff that if they never work during sales period they will be given warning letter. Some selling floor seniors treat part timers or new staff worst than a helper. Bad training to new staff. Most seniors that they newly promoted are lack of product knowledge. Everything is all bout visual merchandising and displaying and stockroom. Some managers were hire outside and the staff is even more smart enough to do proper management in the store.

Pros

If you are looking to progress within fashion or retail industry INDITEX could be a good gym to learn how to be multitasking, quickly and prepared. If you are lucky, you could have a nice European team to work with( Spanish and Italian most). Possibility to grow up quickly( if you are Spanish/ friend with managers)

Cons

- low consideration human right ( no possibility to plan a personal life as the daily rota changing); - a kind of "mafia" between management; - no meritocracy; - the company try to save money as much as possible( This summer we were without air conditions at all. Customer and employees refused to work because of the non human condition).
