Pros

The weekend hours are decent, HR team is efficient.

Cons

You will clean more then sell, you will deal with mice, you are treated like janitors. It's the higher managers way or NO way. You cannot choose which store you work in, they will relocate you at any time to suit them. Progression is done only if you jump through hoops to get it. Salary is RUBBISH!

Thanks for your feedback. I am sorry that you felt disillusioned in your role. It is true that part of the role will involve cleaning and administration work, which is clearly defined at interview. We also explain the store locations within the district you are employed, as their will be times when you will be required to cover or move to other stores. I am pleased that you also recognise the work life balance we aim to provide with no late evening opening or long weekend hours.
