Pros

For retail, they actually pay relatively well compared to other retailers. I was on £6.20 an hour which was above average at the time. It's very fast paced so if you enjoy being kept busy, it's great.

Cons

The employee structure is very flat so you find those who progress keep moving around in the same role before eventually moving up but this was relatively rare. As a part timer, it was almost impossible.

Pros

Good starting pay vs. other retailers Good discount- 25% off Fun coworkers Days are broken down into different functions, you don't do the same thing for 8 hours Variability of shifts Can wear whatever you want, can be yourself Recognized for customer service skills in weekly competitions

Cons

Hectic and stressful, especially in the summer and on weekends Only have opportunities for promotion and raises around once a year Some management and other advisors have bad attitudes and treat you like you know nothing Inconsistent training standards Staying 2+ hours after close to straighten store and run back clothes from the fitting room
