Pros

Discount 30% own brand, 10% other brands

Cons

Fear culture of regional managers coming to stores and making management cry 39 hour contract but area manager and store manager expect you to work 7.30am until the store closes which could be between 5-8pm. Which means you work 40/50 hour weeks. Makes you feel guilty for taking breaks as there's too much to do. Doesn't show one ounce of trust in their employees fron the minute they walk in the door. This is proven by the daily embarrassing searchs that involve you having to even take your shoes off and show your socks as well as empty your bag and pockets into a tray infront of the rest of the team. Constant bullying to achieve a green audit of your job will be at risk Two faced, lying managers who even if you work your self to the bone will still talk about you off to everyone in the store and point out your every little mistake to try and get you into trouble. Click culture with certain managers and area manager. Some managers get away with blatent bullying, breaking serious security and health and safety routines because there the area managers friend. While other managers get threatened with action for missing 1 signature on a document.
