Pros

Discount Staff are lovely Occasional freebies 28 days holiday + extra if you do a lot of overtime A lot of room to grow within the company Competitive salary depending on store size

Cons

39 hour contract however every week working 48+ hours with NO additional pay whatsoever or time in lieu Immense amount of pressure especially working in a big store Store managers speak down to you like you are a child Company has way to high expectations for their staff Only allowed 3 sick days off a year otherwise you’ll be investigated Made to sell rubbish stuff to customers that don’t want the products also registering beauty cards and selling poxy SIM cards Sexual harassment in a lot of stores by the male managers Also no work life balance at all! You will never ever get a weekend off and the rota gets released on a Saturday when your week starts from Sunday so no time to plan anything on your days off
