Great team spirit
Sales Assistant (Current Employee) – Castlebar, County Mayo – 7 October 2018
The team work really well together. The day is busy and you have to work fast. The management are accommodating. Being friendly is very important part of the job. If you want to you can get trained on lots of areas. I love having flexibility with my hours, if I choose I can work 37 hours or stick to my contract hours. Pay is minimum rate but your can earn bonus which can add another euro per hour.
Pros
Flexible hours, great holidays, bonus
Cons
Minimum pay if you don't earn bonus
productive

A company who does not care about its staff
Sales Associate (Former Employee) – County Dublin – 9 August 2018
Always felt out of touch with the management and even more so with those who were in control of the whole company. The worst part, though, was that I let myself be bullied by those who were meant to have my best interests, and I found that a lot of people on the team felt the same way.
Pros
Nice co-workers
Cons
30 min breaks for 8 hour shifts, bad management, unrealistically high expectations for low pay

Sales Associate (Former Employee) – Dublin ireland – 7 February 2018
a typical day at work would be on the cashier tills for me, dealing cash and customers throughout the day. I learned to work as a team, how to deal with all sorts of customers. the management was very good always very helpful whenever you had a problem or needed assistance. Everyone got on the work environment was good and peaceful.

Temporary sales assistant (Former Employee) – Cork – 27 November 2017
Was payed late despite trying to contact numerous of times.
Next only ever seem to advertise for temporary jobs and when they are temporary it's you coming in on sales .e.t.c. to do the long and early mornings..which I didn't mind.
Staff friendly,got my lunch break as promised and so on but the hassle of being payed late turned me off.

Floor Manager (Former Employee) – Douglas – 10 August 2017
Good atmosphere and great team to work with.
If you willing to learn you can go up onto the ladder very quickly.
Performance review with managers had to go through store manager for authorization.
The culture depends of the type of the store manager.
The most enjoyable part of the job was when I realize this was my second family

I didn't work in the blanchardstown outlet very long but the didn't even pay me a third of what I was meant to earn! I called numerous times and the problem was never resolved. The team are very nice and welcoming but this left a bitter taste in my mouth
