Pros

As I work in the city, the pay rate is suprisingly good for working in retail. Also with my store also being new the stuff facilities are to a high standard.

Cons

Poor in store management in my store personally. If you wish to move up to the next level (ie. Full timer/supervisor etc) you need to have a relationship on a friendship level with a manager otherwise no chance. Not much praise is given to those who work hard constantly and poor communication between management and staff.

Pros

The people I have met have been the loveliest I have ever known and the shifts I've been given are always placed around my availability.

Cons

I find that management don't have a clue what they are doing - recently, we lost a Christmas temporary worker on the fitting rooms and the new schedule meant no one would be there between 12 and 1. Thankfully, other people covered shifts over it for today, but this was very silly on their part.
