The discount invariably means that you spend large chunks of your salary on the games
Stores are obsessively and very strictly numbers driven
You must always be in sales mode even though most of your customers will literally be in the store as much as you are
One woman/man stores mean if you are sick, have car trouble, etc the store isn't getting opened and you will loose sales for that day which is a very bad thing
Taking vacation and sick leave to take care of your kids can and/or will be used against you because not being open is no excuse for not having sales unless you are fortunate enough to work in a city with a floater
UK management really does give the impression of not having a clue as to how the US markets function even though we are very different
Zero room for advancement
Upper management has constantly shifting ideas
They will tell you it's not a numbers driven game but all reviews are strictly numbers based
Don't expect to get bonuses often
Upper management is turning the information pipeline into a very narrow trickle and is aggressively and openly keeping their store managers in the dark
Rarely do you recognize people from one year to the next at meetings given the turnover
