Pros

- Online portal to see your shifts and get overtime - Pay slightly more than the minimum wage for under 21s - Most staff are friendly - Good uniform allowance if you like Next clothes (the sizes didn't fit me very well though so I didn't really benefit)

Cons

- Some managers are rude to the sales consultants and staff who have worked there a long time bully new employees over uniform or nit pick at your performance constantly - If you get a low rating on your review you can't get overtime - It gets really quiet at around 5:30pm and if there are no bigs jobs to do it can be really boring with nothing to do - Training was very poor and given to me very late, I never got training on furniture orders even though I worked on home for nearly 7 months - When I first started I was given overtime without being asked or told, I regularly had 30 hour weeks on a 16 hour contract and couldn't give up unwanted shifts - Sales start ridiculously early - unnecessary and tiring - Quite a few products come in faulty and poor quality but are never sent back they're just put out until a customer buys it and returns it or complains
