Cons

-Minimum wage (should have been London Living Wage) -Expected to do lots for very little return -Staff Christmas bonus cancelled in 2020 - we knew the online business thrived during lockdowns so no excuse for this really -Not much progression -Typical retail management structure - head office think they know what they're talking about when the reality is they had no clue

Pros

This was an outstanding company with a rich history, cared about its customers and its people. The stability and security were unmatched.

Cons

Purchased by a Ukrainian company in the last couple of years, they've cut hundreds of people globally, and continue to cut now, in the name of "reorganization". Remaining staff are swamped, and looking for jobs. The company hires and promotes, but only those who are not located in the US get the opportunities. Moral is horrible, fear is intense, confusion is constant.
