Great place to work!

Senior district manager

Business Outlook

Pros

The internal and hierarchical lines are very short, you work in a coaching and learning work environment, good team spirit, structured and protocol work environment. For me the best place when you want to work with people develop and coach them to become the best version they can be! You are being coached on your behavior and development to become the best leader you can be.

Cons

Becuase it is a protocol and process environment you need to be aware that you want to work in this company, when you love that way of working you will have found your new job!

Could have been better

Assistant store manager

Business Outlook

Pros

Exceptional training provided. Great weekend hours. There are incentives to achieve. Travel and food reimbursed when working away from your base shop.

Cons

The bonus scheme is designed to limit the amount you can earn in an established store. They reel you in with the promise of hundreds in bonus but the reality is quite different. Micro management, favouritism, managerial bullies and high staff turnover. I witnessed staff being pushed out during my time. They were actively targeted. In my district, the sickness policy was “don’t go sick”. Sickness was met with suspicion, interrogation and it can lead to unwarranted “stern conversations”.

Than you for your review I am glad that you find our training exceptional, it is something we pride ourselves on. I am sorry you feel let down by the style of management, We take any allegations of bullying seriously and have several ways to report it and policies specifically to deal with it. I wish you success in your next role.
