Pros
Open to ideas and feedback in the visual merchandising department, locally and globally. A small VM team but everyone is positive and encouraging to work with.
Cons
Every month there's an event/activation being organised due to the continual re-branding campaign that the brand is still doing. Great fun when there's always something to look forward to but it also gets very tiring physically
