Worked my socks off for very little pay and appreciation.

Business Outlook

Pros

Good camaraderie within the team. Good staff discount.

Cons

Minimum pay. No chance of a pay rise, unless you advanced to Sales Leader - even then it was only pennies more - so not really worth it. You worked your socks off for very little appreciation from Regional Manager and Head Office. You often did not have Customer Services' backing when you were trying to sort out customer issues. Frustrating, as it often felt as you were working for different company, rather than pulling in the same direction. Constant promotions, so very few customers would accept paying full price for anything...
