RecommendsPositive OutlookI worked at Marks & Spencer part-time for less than a year
Pros
The company has an excellent work culture and employee friendly policies have been set by them company which also benefits the organisation on the whole. I worked for just 6 months in London, but while I worked for them in India, I found that there are a lot of growth opportunities (in-store). The support from senior management is excellent. The company makes sure the employees have an overall development.
Cons
Should an employee leave the company to pursue a degree or for higher studies, then its really difficult to get back in the company.
