Pros
*Unique and innovative environment - Liberty works hard to have a niche product offer and consistently offer something different. *Most interesting and unique clientele of any store I have worked at. Footfall always quite high. *Generous staff discount (35%) compared to other department store competitors. * Similar to it's product, Liberty endeavoured to hire a unique and diverse mix of staff.
Cons
* The store could often feel like a frustrating environment to be in as the business often lacked commercial focus. As staff, we all had a sense of incredible ownership of Liberty- we all had our own little ideas of how we could make the store better. We felt that the business could be brilliant if Liberty just changed xyz, but it always fell short of greatness. *Physically surroundings could feel quite gloomy - very little natural light, very dark, too cold in winter and too hot in summer. *Staffroom conditions were appalling circa 2014-16. No meal options provided for staff (in contrast to almost all department store competitors)
