Pros
Safety of the teammates and customers is top priority and you can definitely say that Decathlon is a safe place to work, not only physically, but also mentally. If you love sport, this is the company that can make you feel proud with what you are doing. Possibilities for development are endless. You can work in retail for 5 years, switch to logistic, after that finance, logistic, whatever you seek interesting or you want to develop in. Company is 100% correct when it comes to contracts, payment of salaries, bonuses and everything is clear from the beginning. One of the few companies in the market that actually follow their values. This is one of the main criteria if you are going to fit in and enjoy working with like-minded people. Your voice is heard! You see room for improvement or someone is not behaving the right way, there is always someone that you can trust to share and make a change. Great benefits and security.
Cons
Intensity in the company is very high. Retail is super demanding, changes happen very often, so you have to be ready to adapt. Despite the attention on the values and the quality of work, you can sometimes be under bad management. For 10 years and 7 different managers, happened only once and you have to be brave to speak up or you will be in amazing company, but having bad working experience.
