Misleading and shocking.

Sales assistant

Business Outlook

Pros

Great staff benefits, discounts, freebies and pay rate. The beginning of employment is incredibly exciting and drool-worthy, with grand plans of staff parties, prizes, bonuses and potential for career progression. Makes for a hopeful experience. Staff events are amazing. Good potential for networking with brands.

Cons

Managers and training incredibly inconsistent. Makes for a confusing working space. Misleading praise. Didn't appreciate the push on up-selling and active selling. Customer service should come before selling an unnecessary item to a buyer.
