Pros

Good philosophies of sale: advice clients on what they need (not what is more expensive). Some managers use a democratic style but not all of them. If you work their long enough, can benefit interesting bonuses.

Cons

Long hours of work, very physical with few break (sometimes none except for a short lunch break). Poorly paid if no bonus. Management style could be quite strict with no flexibility depending on your department and store manager.

Pros

The people at Decathlon are passionate and always optimistic about the future. Challenges are big and the company culture makes them more and more ambitious. However, never mind how the bar is high, the positive attitude make it possible to over perform. Through my experience I learned a lot on the field and thank to a strong support from the management. I also could match my personal hobbies with my daily job and make the most of a wonderful work-life balance. Never felt squeezed or even close to a burnout.

Cons

The salaries and benefits make it on average. You won't see many people driving porches to get to the office. Not ok for people only driven by money. The company is always questioning the way the do business and this is good to keep performing. However it can shake the most of the people.
