Pros

There are not any pros.

Cons

Awful place to work. I was warned before coming into the business from previous employees and wish I had listened to them. The culture is extremely unfriendly and aggressive. It is a blame culture, not just in what I experienced, but in what I saw and heard. It is like being in a playground. They make you work around the clock, there is no praise and the salary is awful. Argos will not pay you what they owe you, they only care about protecting themselves and couldn't care less about the staff. Management aren't the brightest either. I really could not recommend Argos any less and advise everyone to find employment in a place where you work together as a team and are valued.

Pros

Decent amount of hours provided. Not much else is a pro in all honesty. Pay is low for the job.

Cons

Headsets! Everything takes twice as long, stock shoved in to wherever it fits. No flow to stockroom anymore. Having to repeat yourself again and again just to tell it where your having to put it is ridiculous.

Pros

- Lovely team members and management - Plenty of on-the-job training

Cons

- Poor pay - Appallingly out of date operating systems that make what would be simple tasks chores. - Understaffed - No specialisation between stockroom and direct customer points which prevents the customer getting a better experience.
