Worst company to work for

Counter manager

Business Outlook

Pros

Staff discount Access to other brands

Cons

Working overtime not payed Lowest pay in the beauty industry Working like an absolute donkey with no recognition or chance for promotion No support from upper management Pay not equal with inflation , minimum pay with no incentive. Targets are so high you can never achieve them so you can't get your commision. I've been by myself since Christmas (did Christmas by myself in retail bringing almost 75k into the business with no thank you or bonus). Its an absolute joke of a company to work for. Would avoid at any cost unless you want to work until exhaustion, be paid poorly and be taken as a mug with no support whatsoever.
