Pros

Great team in store, from retail assistants, fellow supervisors and management - all supportive and made work really enjoyable. Very fast pace of work, always something to do, and oversee. DM's, SDM's and AM all very supportive and really enthusiastic about their roles

Cons

Sometimes there was huge pressure from senior management to run the floor efficiently, even when we were short staffed and you are the only supervisor/manager on the floor. Blame was also shifted by some managers onto supervisors, so we took the flack. Progression opportunities were limited within the store and region.
