Pros

Salary, discount, new tech before the masses, holiday entitlement.

Cons

The colleagues run the stores. I am a former store manager with many years experience and IF you dare to try and 'coach' a colleague or adjust their behaviour you will be taken to task for it by your regional manager. The work/life balance is non existent and is not something anyone above RM level cares about (although they work only Mon-Fri). Nobody in the head office support teams works weekends or after 5pm, they all have around 10 days off at Xmas. Basically if you are looking to join this company in a managerial store based role, I would think again.

Pros

Can’t really get fired even if you steal money from the company as many ppl do. Just get a investigation. Few weeks off paid with bonus and then come back with a slap on the wrist

Cons

Very noisy Shifts are 11 am 8 pm every day Canteen is a rip off and really poor food Bad and very old systems Only way to make money is rip off old people and give rubbish phones on high tariffs Commission is really bad max £300 a month always told its more Loads of bad system abuse and stat faking Won’t be long till it goes under and has to close. Already lost the ee contract due to miss selling
