Nice in some ways, not nice in other ways

Pros

Good discount on discontinued products. Offers available for customers often match or better staff discount, so not sure staff discount is all it's cracked up to be. Good uniform allowance. Good brand with some quality products. Time and a half on Sundays, decent holiday allowance. Supportive shopfloor team

Cons

Attitudes from higher management to shopfloor staff not great. A lot is expected for minimum wage; selling credit cards and interest free credit, made-to-measure orders that can be complicated, too many sales (all the time) which customers are noticing, so devalues the products' full price as they are barely ever that price. Constantly changing the sale branding takes up a lot of time when staffing is low yet they want you to focus on customer service. Deliveries are often too big and not the products needed in store.

Pros

Having only worked in Laura Ashley for approx 4 months, I have to say, I love it! I have worked in lots of retail companies, but Laura Ashley in Warrington has to be by far the best for me. The management team care about their staff. There is fantastic staff moral thus creating excellent team work. They have the balance just right, staff work hard, but are regularly praised and rewarded for doing so.

Cons

I dont have any negatives comments at all x
