Pros

Looking back at when I opened the store, great atmosphere, excitement and full on support from management was received. Full informative training days were an absolute blast. Great ethics, London living wage & 50% discount.

Cons

- Constant changes in management have caused communication problems. Stop hiring incompetent supervisors who end up leaving after a short while! Poor communication among staff members, things that should be included in weekly newsletters are always missed out. New recruits are working with no prior training dropping the standards. It's just not a great vibe anymore. Some managers are very patronising (e.g. Someone who's name starts with H) and recent cash discrepancies have created a culture of distrust and have generally been making staff's lives miserable.. For example we have to stay behind after our shift has ended just because the cash team haven't taken us off tills on time. Also, we throw away ridiculous amounts of bath products everyday, and staff aren't allowed to take them home like we use to be able to.
