Pros

Wren is probably the most rewarding and satisfying company I've been part of in my career thus far. The team atmosphere is fantastic, and unlike many sales organisations, everyone wants you to succeed. The satisfaction of seeing a project through from initial consultation to finished article, knowing that it's a design that you created, gives it a dimension that most sales roles don't give you. I would also suggest that the training and support is fantastic, having no previous kitchen experience is no barrier to success.

Cons

Being a family owned business means that the pace of change is incredible and mostly positive, though it does occasionally lead to some half baked execution, with a period of adjustment that follows. I would also say that if you're not willing to take responsibility for your performance Wren probably isn't for you, as challenging questions will be asked when you fail to achieve (and I can say that from personal experience).

Pros

Opportunities for promotion if your in contact with right members of management. Fast paced, busy work. Ability to create admin processes.

Cons

Management make promises they don't keep. Huge pressure to go above and beyond, never appreciated. Ultimately treated as just a number no matter what your working relationships are with senior management, or the extra effort you make. Store management pass on a bulk of their work to admin.
