Pros

No pro to working here

Cons

diabolical place to work, was based in Tottenham Court Road store, wouldn’t wish it upon my worst enemy. Management negatively gossip about staff, multiple managers give you a different job to do , then you get in “trouble” for not doing what you are told, even though the managers have not leased with each other. Absolute shambles, management need to remember they work for a fash fashion company, not Louis Vuitton. Constantly break their own handbook rules. If you are white British don’t bother working here, you will get treated differently to staff of other nationalities.
