Pros
Dunelm Tech team is going through a new ways of working transformation; this has created lots of new opportunities and allowed so many existing tech colleagues to see their career's develop (as well as bringing in new talent to tech). Dunelm is also investing in Agile/Scrum training as they see this as key to the transformations success. Go Dunelm Tech!
Cons
Syston office is bursting with colleagues (but this isn't a bad thing as Dunelm is growing and bucking the retail trend!)
Advice to Management
Don't forget about IT Service as we focus on new initiatives!

Pros
Colleagues are like having extra family, doesnt matter how old we all are in the dundee branch, we all get treated the same, our manager is amazing funny and runs a smooth ship, why? Because we have respect for all and that is why we have happy colleagues, and customers live the warm happy service we give them

Cant think of much to say here, we get 15% staff discount, everyone gets help no matter how small or how big the issue is,
Advice to Management

Pros
The team at Dunelm is like a family unit, everyone is so friendly and welcoming and we all work together succesfully. The company really does care about its staff and is constantly moving forward to better ourselves and progress our career paths and support this is any way possible; whether this be the team leaders or store managers offering oppurtunity and advice or the colleague council constantly working to better our working enviroments by listening to what WE want to see happen and showing us how they are doing this. I have met life long friends through Dunelm and I am proud to work for this company.
Cons
In retail there are always going to be 'those' customers who can bring the staffs mood and morale down which can affect the entire team however more often than not, we support each other when these difficult situations happen and come out the other end having a happy and successful day.
Advice to Management
We need contactless to quicken the speed of service and effiency of tills.
