Pros

60% off on £2000 worth of product each year 6 weeks of holidays each year (only allowed between January - October, however)

Cons

Non existent work-life balance. They really overwork you, I'm 23 and I now have severe back problems after 2 months in this job. Manager was really unprofessional and treated employees like incompetent children, rather than staff. Everyone was constantly yelled at and no one gained any acknowledgement for the hard work they did. Don't know if this is the case everywhere, but it rang true for the Livingston branch, anyway.

Pros

Strong level of autonomy as a Store Manager to drive the business, implement strategies, and influence sales performance Opportunity to develop leadership skills through team coaching, training, and performance management Emphasis on client experience and building meaningful in-store customer relationships Creative freedom to execute sales-driving initiatives and local events Hands-on ownership of business results, which can be very rewarding for self-motivated leaders

Cons

Limited support from regional and district leadership, particularly in satellite locations, which can feel isolating High turnover due to relatively low pay for Crystal Experts and Assistant Managers Budget constraints make it difficult to recruit and retain experienced, high-performing talent Teams may require significant development due to lower wage tiers, increasing workload and pressure on management Store conditions in some locations feel outdated, with limited investment in remodels or upgrades Compensation structure for hourly roles does not always align with expectations or workload
