Pros

Great bonus if ur store reaches target (sales/ cashiers) Great incentives (not done very often) Great colleagues

Cons

Terrible managers (slow!!!) Company is very slow at progression Lots of targets and KPIs for all staff (with the exception of warehouse staff) Training is NOT done regularly enough to increase your rate of pay Company like to put you on lower contracts than you should be

Pros

Flexible hours, great working environment, good pay for retail sector

Cons

The only real con is the bonus structure they need to look into changing that, it's absolutely awful. One thing I will also say is that sales isn't for everyone, if you're not a driven person who deals well with pressure to hit multiple KPI's, you will not be very successful, that's just the nature of the job.

Once innovative firm - now in merger hell

Pros

Good for people who like working on many projects that may or may not have the experience for. This has an entrepreneurial 'we can do anything' attitude

Cons

Constantly changing goalposts - projects can go on for months and then fizzle out Fix it by Friday mentality - loves to short term fixes. Next to no long term solutions Merger with Dixons now feeling like a takeover, nit a 'marriage of equals'. Steady exit of very experienced CPW staffers who would have been future leaders.
