Pros
Learn about retailing. Plenty of cross cultural interactions. Some opportunities to move across the business.
Cons
Used to be focused and positive. Extremely political. Unless you have a God-father, you get nowhere. Unspoken truth - being British can double your career prospects here. British and graduate, grow thrice as fast. The last three years have been horrible. International stakeholders (internal customers) act like kings needing to be pleased; while the executive team stay far from the reality and believe we operate shoulder to shoulder as one team. Cultural sensitivity = be British. Things don't get fixed - constantly playing cat and mouse trying to find fault with each other. Ancient technology but aspirations are sky high about competing with the best online retailers. The new CEO Glen is from Commercial. Had no clue about IT or Property or Finance or BPO. Only talks cost reduction, and his glorious addition to margins in Korea.
