Pros
50% Staff Discount (Head Office only)
Cons
Junior levels are treated like dirt, there is 0 training provided, 0 career progression, 0 benefit (aside from staff discount) and 0 anything positive. Senior levels to blame and almost take joy in watching the junior levels be so unhappy. I ran out of fingers to be able to count the amount of times I'd see girls running off crying.... the pressure that's being put on people to deliver what isn't sometimes possible is ridiculous. A lot of the buyers act as if they have a sense of privilege, as if because they were that level once they can treat anyone how they want; instead of changing the narrative, being the buyer/merch they didn't have. Let's not forget we're only choosing clothes for others to buy...not saving the world. Training doesn't exist, let's start explaining the 'why' behind racks being pulled, the why behind colour splits or ratio sizing and not just saying 'take 5% cost price reduction' every time something goes a week late. Also, if salary is important to you, just remember the pay is awful and even at the very top you'll be lucky to make £100k a year.
