Pros

The training is brilliant, you get a whole week of sessions on the products and how to five star customer service. The ethos is amazing, you feel really great selling truly great products with good morals and values. The staff/my colleagues were lovely. You get 50% off all products, which during Christmas time was especially great as I bought all my presents there.

Cons

The quality of customer service is very high, so it can be quite strict. They are very strict about being punctual, you are expected to be early by five minutes and work right up to your time. During the Christmas period you will be on your feet all day with only a short break to sit down. It is intense but that is expected of the service industry. Some customers don't like the approaches you are trained to do, and can react negatively but this isn't the companies fault.

Pros

Discounts, we got 50% off of most items

Cons

Unhygienic, stressful, money hungry, fear monger. Unprofessional managers both as an employee and customer. Never experienced such low life conditions, manager brought in animal multiple times in store, and made staff clean its pee. Customers were floored, inexcusable and HR is unresponsive. The bathroom is disgusting, and inaccessible. I cannot imagine any one with a physical disability being able to use the restroom. It was so difficult to suck in your stomach, then trip on box after box. They BLOCK the fridge and made us put our food in our tiny lockers. Manager is too comfortable with the amount of time spent within the company to ever fear facing any consequences or repercussions. Even fired staff in the past for contacting HR for help.
