      Nasty upper management. Unprofessional and disrespectful.

      Pros

      A global company on your CV (despite the reputation). I would recommend only planning a brief career with this company- look to move on as soon as you have the opportunity. This is not a happy or encouraging company to work for.

      Cons

      The Australian subsidiary presents itself as the employment standard in retail and consumer products whilst running the operation like a middle market brand, treating employees in stores like children. You will be very disappointed with the remuneration which is never up for discussion or negotiation. Head office are generally disorganised, disrespectful in their written and oral communication, and will refuse to listen to any constructive feedback. HR are unhelpful and encourage gossip and sabotage. Some upper managers at head office are so horrible in their communication you would rather not answer the phone when their ID pops up. We would often have a lot of staff call in sick the day a regional manager was visiting as they just didn’t feel like being grated and disrespected.

      For 12 of the 14 years it was great.

      Pros

      Discounts we're good but has now changed to bad.

      Cons

      Last few years has had a lot of turnovers in upper management. And not very sound choices in the direction the company is going. Discounts changed, pay structure was constantly changing.

      Pros

      Amazing people at all levels of the business & a very strong senior management team leading the UK operation. All Directors including the Managing Director are very approachable and down to earth. Great opportunities to travel throughout the store & office network. Opportunities to push yourself are plentiful if you are ambitious. Great clothing allowance & discount. Flexible working policy is handy for life outside of work.

      Cons

      Can be difficult to keep track of who's who in the German head office.
