Pros

Excellent opportunity to learn a niche skill, i.e. fabric and textile design. Working with the best textile suppliers in the world. I made some fantastic connections and learned a lot. Great benefits within a globally recognised brand.

Cons

Day to day is quit stilted and work can be very repetitive. No encouragement to work cross departments, and some colleagues can be unnecessarily competitive.

Fantastic Company

Category manager

Business Outlook

Pros

Fun environment, great benefits: health, discounts, etc. I loved the way the company sent out videos for its staff to watch that made employees feel very connected to corporate (the CEO, designers, etc) and locations across the globe. Most retailers fall short of this. It made for a warm, family-like environment and encouraged excitement and ownership of the brand.

Cons

It was difficult to move up past a sales associate. I knew competent people who had been trying for years with no success. They were given little feedback as to why they were being passed over. This created a negative cloud over my own experience before I even noticed it was also something I was starting to battle as well.

A good working experience

Business Outlook

Pros

Multicultural environment. The environment is free in general. Very competitive salary compare to other customer service positions. Friendly colleagues. Attractive employee discounts.

Cons

A lack of trainings and coaching. You are told that you are good but you never know how good you are. No solid action plans about what you can do to perform better. A lack of support on systems as well. Consultants have to navigate from systems to systems just to log one case - system errors occur very often.
