Pros

The teams are great, most co-workers are friendly and will help you out. Good pay for the job - great perks (yearly bonuses in line with the store's performance), very cheap food and drink at the great co-worker restaurant, loyalty is well-rewarded.

Cons

Can be long hours and you no longer get extra pay for working overtime. Customers can be very stressed and the work is often intense.

Pros

I have a very empathetic and flexible manager. Although I do meet the requirement to be in office three days a week many others do not and don’t seem to suffer for it. My work can be challenging at times, but due to the slow pace of most things here I rarely feel overwhelmed.

Cons

This is, without equivocation, the most sclerotic organization I have ever been a part of. The management structure and reporting lines are inscrutable and even after 3 years I barely understand how my team fits into the larger picture. My job is a data role, and although getting access to data has improved somewhat, it is still one of my biggest blockers.
