Pros

- Previously a brilliant place to work with a wonderful family-esque feel amongst staff in store. - Previously great benefits. - Previously a company you could be proud to work for.

Cons

- All competent management were made redundant, instead replacing them with inexperienced individuals. - Company will find any excuse to not pay you, for example NHS enforced Covid Isolation will not be accepted. You will be pressured to go in regardless of tests. - Minimal covid safety. Staff made to go in when they should be isolating. - Overally corporate feel in stores, having spoken to individuals from varying stores most individuals motivation is at an all time low this year. - Company very obviously value Wealth over Health and do not put colleagues safety first at all. - You will face an endless amount of abuse from customers due to the company withholding refunds and repairs for months citing Covid as the cause. - Your job role may change at a moments notice, you may think you are a sales advisor in a customer facing role but you may end up as phone support or 'shoplive' - 0% chance of progression from sales advisor role, I've known many people to train for years and follow training programs just to be dropped from the program or let down at last moment.

Pros

Good salary and benefits at a cost

Cons

Dixon’s say the customer is at the centre of everything they do?? The customer is not! Profit is to the detriment of everything and everybody.

Pros

None...and I don’t say that lightly

Cons

Bullying, if your face doesn’t fit forget a career, you need to brown nose not work. Experience means nothing, all in all it was hell.
