Pros

Great staff - All staff at Burgess Hill Argos are great people who are always willing to help me with things I may have forgotten or still getting to grips with. Easy to learn system - the overall system of Argos is very easy to pick up and learn, in about 3 weeks I've become a confident member of staff and I can normally do most tasks without any need for assistance.

Cons

The most challenging part of the job is using the program "aura" which is used to do a multitude of stock related tasks. It is very hard to remember and also looks very unappetising to use

Pros

Interesting job. Strong business model. Some management very good. Good at keeping employees informed on business updates and changes. Progression can be good but only if 'personality fits'.

Cons

Regular workload and responsibility increases without real benefit- no promotion or wage increase. This includes uneven pay across colleagues at same level and doing same job. Very poor discount (10%) making it not worthwhile. Individuals 'level' is purely subjective- no tick sheets or firm levels to complete to progress. No care about ethics- environment, where product comes from etc
