Pros

Great team work Collaborative idea generation Good work life balance Managers do not micro manage and have a policy of open communication

Cons

Live television can be a very stressful environment to work in. Helping a traditional retailer such as Argos to understand the workings of a retail platform that is new to them is an up hill struggle.

Pros

It's a great place to work, the staff are usually very friendly and sociable, the rate of pay is good, you usually start off on above minimum wage and the work is interesting, be in in the stockroom or shop floor.

Cons

In my particular store the hours you get are not great. On a part time contract I usually only get 10 hours a week. They seem to hire more staff than is actually needed so most peoples hours are quite low.
