  • Best thing

    Literally the co workers, that's if your lucky

    Worst thing

    Staff discounts dint cover suitable work shoes. Miminum pay. Managers don't care about you, they only care for themselves. Mental health support is there, but it gets back to your manager. Head office is more focused on KPI's then anything else. Tje company is cheep and you can tell when they've saved money for a lesser quality product. Shifts are handed out last minute and you're lucky if you can get your preference or even your minimum hours

  • Best thing

    Good progression and pathways

    Worst thing

    Low pay
    Supervisors expected to do as much as managers but on a lower wage
    Unpaid over time expected
    Low payroll budget means expect to always be understaffed
    KPI are too unrealistic and stressful, care more about add on sales than actual sales

    money
    the manager’s patience (especially with me) and her kindness

    how stock turns up to our store from the warehouse (broken boxes, broken cages, late stock, boxes not even bothered to have been glued together etc)

    Deichmann Sales assistant, February 2020

  • Best thing

    If you're willing to put in the hours, effort and show you care for the company as a whole then progression is there.

    Worst thing

    The company is very KPI focused, forcing KPI's like sales, shoe care sales, accessory sales, sales from ship to homes and this is very stressful especially when not hit. Shoe cares the biggest they care about in many ways with a target of 4.25% however my store gets shamed for being less than 6% due to being very good at it.
