Pros
Pay isn't bad. Everything provided. IT and head office support impressive. Booming sales, despite lockdown. Although lots of sales are on long term credit so makes you wonder how secure the future is if we face further recession.
Cons
Hours are shocking: who really wants someone in their house at 10 pm measuring up or on a Sunday afternoon? Some stores have a bad attitude and can be disrespectful to some customers and colleagues. Hard selling is allowed; it is truly embarrassing to overhear colleagues pestering potential customers and leads...quality products should never need such hard sell tactics! They say they factor in your commute time to measurement appointments but, in reality, you'll find yourself spending several hours per week traveling to and from appointments in your own time. Although they provide PPE for Covid protection, they expect you to sit out your time waiting for appointments in the stores. When the rule is - "work from home, when possible" why have additional people hanging around stores, increasing the risk of spreading the virus? I get that they want to check for skiving/work dodging but surely not at a risk to others!?
