Pros

Created strong bonds with staff and colleagues and had an overall great time working on the shop floor. A lot of regular, almost daily training in various but relative topics regarding ingredients, products, origins etc.

Cons

Relatively low pay for part timers, not a lot of staff benefits and sometimes favoritism happens.

Good company to be but not to stay forever if you want to grow

Pros

Nice place to work for 2 or 3 years. Good staff discounts, Nice bonus scheme: Global dependent bonus every 3 months and 2 performance reviews every 6 months.

Cons

They have a lot of glass ceilings so don't expect to grow by merits. The work turns too static through the years. They expect you to be always available (even on holidays and weekends).

Pros

Good wage for a retail position. Chances for promotion.

Cons

- Wages do not reflect the work required - Far too much feedback, also sometimes in quite humiliating and badgering. All stores differ but my store had strict feedback tracking and you could potentially get fired for something as small as not facing the door 24/7. - Do not support unions. We were told not to join a union because it would anger the company and not help us get better wages. - Very little chance of hitting targets, they ensure they are too high to hit. - Harsh monitoring. We had a lot of mystery shops at my store, and despite being severely understaffed, some staff were humiliated and told off for not being perfect. Their standard of perfect is extremely high and unattainable when very understaffed. - Hard to get promoted, there was a lot of favourtism. During my 2 years there I saw people perfect for the jobs they were applying for being passed over for the managers best friends or crushes.
