Pros

15% discount and some customers

Cons

Some of the branch managers know how to do there job & quite a few don't, I worked for them for about 18 months, you apply for part time & end up working full time hours, the staff are treated like something on the bottom of a shoe that's been spat out & trod on, they pick & choose there own team & treat a selection of few like outcasts & talk down to and belittle you on the shop floor, sneeky & deceitful bullies some of them, I got accused of steeling money from the till as well as being accused of other things, it was an experience I will give it that, WOW

Pros

15% discount Nothing else is a pro

Cons

Micro management I’ve never experienced in 10 years of retail management. They’re living in the stone ages in terms of technology. Hourly staff get paid to 15 mins so upper management will try and shaft your pay in the name of prod, no clock in/out machine so you’re reliant on managers clocking you accurately. Everything they do is just weird and backwards. They don’t believe in employee law, 11 hour rest period being the big one.
