Pros

Encouraged to speak up and share ideas Fantastic network of fellow managers for support and spirit-lifting! Beautiful products, customer engagement and shop floor environment

Cons

A lot is demanded from managers and assistant managers. You'll either embrace it (expected to 'run' your business rather than turn up and set up, close down and go) or you'll buckle. Long hours - expectation is to be present and work at least 30 minutes before and after you're rota'd (and therefore paid) for every day but this is often more.

Pros

Great selection of naturally based, ethically produced products. Committed to human rights through their 5 core values. A fun environment to work in.

Cons

Low pay for the industry. High expectations of management and sales staff, not commensurate with salary offered. Cares very much for the well being of individuals around the globe but views their own employees as expendable and easily replaceable. High turnover rate for company executives. No commission on sales, very low bonuses for managers.
