amazing - Part-time Sales Advisor Two Seasons Employee Review

As with any dead-end retail job , the only benefit was that I made some great friends!

.Was a real corporate-suck-up culture among store management. Their lives seemed to be the job .Strict sales-target meeting policy .If customers refunded a purchase, the price of the sale would come off your total sales for that period - as if you'd never sold it in the first place. This was a particularly harsh and unpopular policy amongst staff. There were times when a sales rep had met their monthly sales target, but then a customer refund took them back down below the target. A disgusting policy to say the least! .Zero financial incentive to meet targets, only product incentives like a free hoody or t-shirt. .Store was constantly empty, the footfall was always low making meeting sales targets difficult

The people that work at shop level are usually fantastic. I’ve met some of my best friends working here. The discount is good and they run incentives where you can win free product. Progressing is fairly easy if you work hard.

The pay is well below average for the area and their argument is that bonuses and discount make up for that. The company is behind the times combining e-commerce and bricks effectively. It’s fairly obvious working in one of their stores that head office staff care very little for the well-being of their workers on a store level. We regularly get deliveries with one item per cardboard box, not cost effective or eco friendly. The company used to sell unique products and it sold well because it’s unique. The buying team are now playing it safe and it’s starting to look like every other shop of the high street.
