Pros

You are able to gain a big bonus, but this is dependent on upselling Currys additional products, or selling items in tandem with others.

Cons

The push to upsell items and sell these additional products can be a bit intense and it's all that you're measured by, whether customers love you or not. But, it's sales so it's no different to other sales jobs. There wasn't a lot of support for staff I found, and childish behaviour by managerial staff went (and goes) unchecked. Again, the usual stuff that happens in a sales job in the UK.

Hi there Currys Accountant, Thank you for leaving a review, we wanted to take a moment to respond to your points. We are glad to hear you appreciated the benefits we offer you within your Accountant role such as the salary. We pride ourselves on the fact we pay above the national living wage. Whatever their goals, we want colleagues to be able to develop themselves and progress their careers. Through appraisals and reviews all colleagues have the opportunity to discuss progression routes in the company with their line manager. We also recommend colleagues speak with their line managers about their development so training plans can be tailored to individual progression plans. Thank you, the team at Currys

Hello! Thank you for taking the time to leave us a response. We are sorry you had this experience. We wanted to take a moment to reply to your points. We're glad to hear you value the learning environment and salary benefits. We want to be a company that celebrates capable and committed colleagues and helps them achieve their best. At a lot of our stores and sites, we have introduced schemes such as ‘babble boards’ and feedback boxes to help provide an easy way of giving anonymous feedback straight to senior leaders. We encourage all our colleagues to have an open and honest conversation HR to solve any other problems. Thank you, the team at Currys
