Decent pay but toxic micromanagement and immature culture

Customer experience guide

Business Outlook

Pros

Pros. Benefits, Pay is decent if you are making sales

Cons

Where do I begin! The micromanaging is wayyyyy too much GM and AGM sit and gossip about other employees and what they are doing coming in with strict guidelines and rules telling employees they cannot use telephones during business hours this is a job! Not a military base environment not so fun Highschool like culture very immature management who judges and talks about not only staff but customers as well pay is not consistent
