Pros

I spent 7 years at argos across 3 or 4 stores and in each one found an easy to work with and friendly atmosphere among the team in each one. Career progression was easy and simply laid out. I moved from a Christmas temp to team leader in a year. Cat launch was the highlight of the year.

Cons

Online feedback was a joke. 20 minute survey on a 5 customer interaction. High pressure environment, especially during peak. Store managers were either excellent or awful, there was no inbetween.
