Pros

1. Is the benefits so many to name. 2. Is the upside down management the freedom to serve our customers any way we can. 3. Great colleagues to work with. 4. Store is your own to build your rep with your own customers.

Cons

Sometimes it can be lone working but if you take in more money by working hard it will get to a point where you can have a second person in that is if you want to share your bonus.

Pros

Pretty good discount on products.

Cons

Lonely place to work. Management very clicky and difficult to talk to. You're "trained" by managers who know nothing about photography or how to use a camera/photoshop. Sent all over the place to different shops very last minute. Upper management very unprofessional on occasion. I was attacked by a customer and spat at. Called my manager who then complained to other members of staff that I bothered her on her day off! Wouldn't bother unless you like being lonely and being treated like a nobody.

Pros

Good staff discount on offer.

Cons

Only paid for 8 hours a day but have to work at least 8.5 hours, mainly 9 hours. Breaks are not possible when you work alone which is 90% of the time and you are moaned at when you do take a full break. Expected to do a lot for just above minimum wage. Targets are out of reach a lot of the time, and incentives are low. Expected to cancel days off and holidays to cover sickness. Working alone on very busy days with no help available, can go a full day without eating/drinking as there is no help available. Taking most issues to the area team just gets the reply of “that’s the job”
