Pros
Stable employment with consistent hours Clear structure and processes — good place to learn discipline and retail skills Fast paced environment that keeps you engaged Sense of achievement when the job is done well Some genuinely hardworking and dedicated colleagues
Cons
Staffing levels consistently insufficient for workload expected Compressed delivery windows create unrealistic time pressure Inconsistent management — different deputies apply different standards leaving staff confused High performers tend to carry more than their share with little recognition Those who work hardest are often taken for granted while underperformance goes unaddressed Blame culture can flow downward when targets aren't met Limited progression that means dedicated floor staff have nowhere to grow
