Inconvénients

Avantages

Payroll/Summer Fridays Er, that's about it

Inconvénients

Bullying Lack of opportunities Poor management Intimidation Bullying Advertising a person's job whilst they are still there and not telling them. Constant threats about losing your job. Pay is laughable. Crappy support payments and unrealistic expectations. Dull, dull, dull. Permanent staff treated very badly compared to contractors. Contractors have been shafted too. Massive turnover of staff. Forcing older staff out of the company. Unable to retain the new recruits. Give holiday, but expect you to just drop it for no compensation if they need you in. Unable to speak freely or criticise the regime - only very positive comments are allowed. HR are pathetic and seem to encourage the management's terrible behaviour, rather than trying to stop it. IT/RI Tech at River Island is Hell - morale is low, management are dictatorial and everyone is frightened. Please don't join this terrible company.

Avantages

I work with a small team of around 20 people. Collectively everyone is so hard working so the work load does not just fall on one person. Amazing staff discount.

The pay. Minimum wage only. Considering it is a company which turns over billions they should atleast give staff a pay rise.

Inconvénients

-Long hours on you feet with 10-20 minute breaks each day. Everyone in the store kept getting tonsillitis from the air conditioning as it was never cleaned. The stock room had a leak that was never fixed. You weren't really allowed to drink water and toilet breaks were timed and if you took to long you were asked for through your headpiece. At the end of my shift my family would come to meet me and my manager told them to leave the store. The managers had to choose your uniform and if they didn't like what you were wearing they would TELL you. Lack of support when the store closed down, they only offered manager roles (of which I hadn't had any experience in) for stores 40 + miles away!? Some days you'd have 4 hour shifts in one department by yourself and it felt very isolating. No progression in the whole year I worked there
