Pros

The maternity pay and the sick pay is the only benefit to the company

Cons

Do not understand mental health, tried to stop my pay when I went off sick with post natal depression. Took the job I had spent so long trying to get away from me when I returned from my maternity leave. Full of false promises. Make out like the bonus scheme is really good but there's so many things that can give you a handicap that you probably won't even get a bonus after stressing yourself out so much to get it.

Pros

Team got on well, hours weren't particularly harsh (pay not particularly impressive either)

Cons

Overworked due to corporate ruthlessly cutting hours (while hiring more staff?), generally piling on more and more work to the store team without considering time constraints, absolutely no opportunity for advancement while a store manager is already there
