"Despite a healthy approach to work-life balance, if you are not able to be in Slough when it matters this might be a barrier to success" (in 6 reviews)
"The business is very focused in Head Office, (Slough) meaning lots of early starts and very late finishes" (in 9 reviews)
I have been working at O2 full-time (More than a year)
Pros
I've work for O2 for nearly two years now and the learning adn development they offer is amazing, there is always something new to learn using the tools we are given. The pay and benefits that come with the job are good as well, plus they give a great work-life balance and also felexible working, if travelling, usually you will be given your time back depending on how busy your calendar is. Would 100% recommend O2 to a friend.
Cons
I don't think there are any cons for working at O2.
Thank you so much for such a positive review. We are glad you feel you have a work-life balance and that we give you the tools to develop and learn within our company. We are really pleased you would recommend O2 to a friend.... MoreLess

I worked at O2 part-time (More than a year)
Pros
As well as all the benefits you get alongside o2, they’re a company who are interested in you progressing with your future, with o2 or not. University always came first and my manager would back me all the way. They are flexible, and there’s not too much pressure to sell, they just want you to do your best and progress.
Cons
Only downside in my store was there wasn’t much overtime, but that’s just because everyone would attend shifts
I'm glad that you feel O2 was a company that looked after you and you had a manager who understood that your education was important. It's a shame about the overtime, but you obviously worked within a good team! Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, we really appreciate it and good luck with everything in the future....

Great to see the pros you have highlighted for working for us. These are definetely benefits that we shout about and fantastic to see that this is your experience! Unfortunately even though we love our customers we can get the odd one that can be "challenging" but we think it would make our jobs boring if everything was easy - right? Thanks for the review, we really do appreciate it and keep up the good work!... MoreLess
