Business Outlook

Pros

The company is having a very friendly relationship with its employees, provides autonomy and great opportunities for promotions in short duration, people have different options after initially joining as sales manager because the company is integrated.

Cons

The greatest challenge is standing for all eight hours during work, other thing is mobility people are ready to be mobile but the accommodation is not taken care by the company and when they are shifted they are paid same as before.

Pros

From the way of recruitment to the way of working ,everything is just perfect in it's own way.No body cares if you are an undergraduate or a post graduate,all that matters is performance. You perform you grow..and there is no limit of growth and don't even get me started on the the speed of growth.You perform and you take a salary that your friends can only think of. Flat heirarchy,an amazing adaption.Being a decathlonian is one of the coolest thing you will do in your life...Customer oriented pproach in everything we do.To sum it up If you are not one of those boring person who wants to live a boring life in a boring cubicle at boring working hours of 9 to 6 come join Decathlon.

Cons

Are you kidding???People who are writing bout long hours of work and bad management are most probably one of those who like to work in a small room daily on the same seat with the same salary for ages from 9 to 6.in short who are boring and likes monotonous jobs.sorry folks but this is not the decathlon's way.People this is called flexibilty and adaptability.It's a sports company and fitness is the mantra and therefore we along 'with our CEO' likes to stand and work.Two different types of people exist..followers and leaders..we are leaders and we like to lead by an example.
