Pros

benefits: free gym and swimming pool, discounts for dental surgery and other services, can work from home sometimes

Cons

Only retail career progression even for non-retail jobs (to advance, you must follow store career and abandon your senior techincal job background). High ignorance in marketing managers to the external basic market's rules, sometimes at an embarassing level. Design and technic jobs are considered superficially and not important even in the technical departments. Top management encourage clientelism, which is valued and rewarded for your career progress. Low quality output in every marketing/communication field compared to external professionals.
