Pros

No benefits or positives at all..

Cons

Worked for this company for almost 3years, no acknowledgment or appreciation from management.. As a supervisor, I was given ordinary tasks that all other staff would do, dead end job with no room for progression as managers were too busy sitting in the office not caring or helping those on the shopfloor, actually wasn't even a shopfloor, the concessions are small in Selfridges yet the management are lazy sitting in the office and talking about their marital affairs - no one cares..!! Holidays could not be taken when wanted, forced to take days off during the year, unable to swap shifts with other supervisors although proof could be provided for a valid reason however when it suited managers then other supervisors were given the go ahead - racist managers maybe..? Complaints procedures are awful, HR is useless, no support from anyone, management and HR are all in favour of each other and do not know how to differentiate by what is actually right or wrong.. Finally have left this horrible company with spiteful managers therefore avoid this company at all costs otherwise you'll be doing tasks that are not part of your job description and you'll be left doing ridiculously long slavery hours..!!!

Pros

You get lots of PTO up front as a part timer and can gain flex hours overtime. Get a 50 cent raise every six months.

Cons

Was told during onboarding that if a Christian comes into the store spreading the gospel, I have to kick them out. This includes the mention of the Jesus without the church invite. Managers claim its rude and if a customer does it, they get booted. Faced harassment from a customer and management didn't let me switch too a different department. Extremely high turnover rate and managers don't replace them, making your job more stressful during peak hours. Hard to use PTO. Little to no training. Too many bachelor and master holding part timers who get lucked out of moving up in the company. Managers give some people no task while pilling on multiple tasks on one person. Too many managers to deal with (and usually never find) and the full timers make you do the dirty work while they "unpack boxes". Its a pro-LGBT anti christian company. If they want to be pro-LGBT, than more power to them. But anti-Christian is discriminatory and unnecessary.
