Great place to learn about luxury leather and stationery however...
Pros
- Good environment to learn about luxury leather products and stationery and develop clienteling skills especially if you have no prior experience in luxury retail. - Pay is higher than national minimum wage and the commission helps to top it up. - The company has a staff sale every year with good discounts. - Heritage brand with interesting stories behind a lot of the collections.
Cons
Products: Design concepts of a lot of the products seem outdated and some of the products have an unfinished quality about them. Job role: The job involves a lot of admin and some other really tedious tasks alongside selling and customer service. Career progression: Career progression seems limited to higher management. Training: No training scheme in place for sales staff and training for new staff can be inadequate. Pay: Don't count on a pay rise anytime soon if you plan on staying long-term.
