Inconvénients

Store managers too obsessed with wasting payroll on fixing stores decoratively and bringing in extra staff for senior visits. No progression opportunities for those non-conformists who go against the grain. Sales managers expected to work long hours without extra pay or time back due to staffing reductions.

Conseils à la direction

Open your eyes to the need for smaller stores, with smaller range but a much improved guest experience. This has been the case for many years Do this before you collapse.

I had no retail experience but was trained up by various floor managers in various departments. Learned a lot about sales and merchandising.

Sometimes members of management were hard to find to sort out issues

staff discount - 25% on own brand and 10% for concessions

Inconvénients

heavily focused on debenhams card applications, pressure from management

Avantages

Advocate flexible working. Office hours are 9-5. Staff discount, sample sales, perksatwork discounts. Good holiday entitlement. 3pm payday friday finish.

Inconvénients

Communication between buying, merch and tech can be difficult as there isn't a drive that they all have access too. This can contribute to a lot of unnecessary mistakes/excess sampling. At times the work environment was difficult during the refinancing period, however this has improved significantly now that it's completed.

Avantages

Calm work atmosphere, lots of down time between sales

Inconvénients

Short breaks, unclean work environment

Conseils à la direction

Take on more staff
