Thanks for your review, glad to read that you're making the most of our flexible contracts.
- Current Employee, more than 3 years★★★★★
Good for people only needing low hour work that don't expect anything out of it.
RecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
Close team that works well together and helps each other out. OK pay if the level system is used in your store (More experienced = hire pay but this is hardly used in any store) Busy workload so you always have something to do. From other staff I know that it is quite a flexible place to work for parents and students with most colleagues willing to swap shift to help if they can.
Cons
Zero career aspects for most people. It isn't about what you know but how much you suck up to management. No full time contracts and hours go to the friends of managers instead of hard workers that get the job done. No feedback from management on how to improve or on tasks that need doing. Too many decisions made by people from high up with no clue of how a store actually works.

Pros
It's simple to apply, it treats even low level employees with quite a bit of respect. I was able to learn anything i wanted to about the store our systems and sales skills in general, working there for just a few mouth's opened TONS of doors for me to do other things.
Cons
Pay was pretty poor, don't let it become who you are. My personal manger was very hands off I felt he wasn't very productive in general and was much more worried about his future then the stores.
- Former Employee, less than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
Flexible hours and good work environment. Good discount if you like DIY
Cons
Laborious retail work, very repetitive
