Pros

- Great people to work with (they hire the best!) <3 - Company provided financial aid during covid - Great allowance for wellness - Very generous employee discount

Cons

- Be expected to work public holidays, weekend (well, it is what you signed up for...) - Politics. If the management likes you and you follow the "right" manager, you are given inside tips/words to say to ace the interview. But if you follow the "wrong" manager, your work is put under a microscope and your good work is doubtful and underplayed - HQ is in HKG for asia and even in Singapore where we have so many stores, we do not have the opportunity to proceed to roles other than retail based - Too many store openings, educators and leaders are spread too thin as it is. Company is too focused on expanding that people are overworked and under appreciated

Pros

The benefits with the sweaty Pursuits is good and the insurance is good too! You get a team that you get to put together and get to know them and see what works for you guys to be successful in a processing shift!

Cons

The nights are long and very overworked. They ask a lot from you and usually they put the business before you. It’s always we need this and that from the managers but not actually taking time to help or to actually see that we are trying our best and if they actually worked a shift with us and saw the struggles they would understand more. They think it’s easy, when the weight of the store depends on us. You are also qualified as a Guest Experience lead since you have to do both trainings so the management do over utilise that and you will be doing two jobs. Even though it says in the description to support the floor but there’s a difference between supporting from time to time and doing it all the time where you are running the floor and the back at the same time but they’ll say “oh why isn’t this done?” Maybe because you’ve told me to help you out ? The are also very selective about who moves up to be a manager. No work life balance at all!
