Pros

Decent work life balance Regular bonuses

Cons

Games Workshop is very flat. Promotions are rare and you have to be a sycophant to get them. It doesn’t matter how much time you spend, it matters how much butt you kiss. If you’re ok just being a sales person for a decade and not getting anywhere, boy do I know of a job for you. Any aspirations of moving up are completely contingent if people don’t railroad you your entire career and if you’re deemed worthy, even though you spent time teaching your manager about the business, a job you applied for and got denied for. When it comes tow workplace accommodation, their definition of reasonable is middling at best. If you don’t like loud noises, people screaming to have a floor meeting because they can’t send an email or you have any type of anxiety, stay away from this place.

Pros

You are going to get a deeper understanding of the hobby you love. I thought I was an expert painter, hobbyist, player, lore enthusiast etc, but I learned so much from the players. The company is pretty laid back, as long as you are honest and do your job, you will do well.

Cons

Even though it's the largest wargaming company in the world, it's not a big company, which means someone has to die or retire for you to move up. Most of their corporate roles are in either in Memphis, or Houston so if you don't want to live there, don't think of about moving out of retail and into the professional side. The stores are generally 1 person, so you are on your own. If something goes sideways at the register, you need to figure it out.
