Pros

It has to be the people if you're lucky enough to get a store where everyone supports each other each day is a pleasure. I've made life long friends and I looked forward to every day. No matter how hard things became you had people to guide you and help you.

Cons

If you work for a franchise you are paid less, you have more pressure and things can change very quickly. If you work for the retail non franchise you have better conditions of work. The prices are not competitive compared to other similar companies and they need to get rid of add ones and focus on the core product.

Pros

Decent basic for retail Great training My manager have been really cool and supportive Strong brand to have on a cv Generous discounts allowance First to get access to new phones

Cons

High KPIs All regional managers are unsupportive Culture of fear of losing your job No progression to head office Constant changes in targets More focus on sales Depending on your store you can get a great team or a team of snakes A lot of politics Very demanding and rude customers on a regular basis. No overtime Now a lot of high employee turnover The best CEO has left A lot of food staff have left Blame culture mentality

Pros

Leader in Latin America. Good work environment. Growing customer base in the US leveraged by strong relationships in Latin America.

Cons

Desorganized. Confusing processes. Spanish leadership in the US are very arrogant and they do not understand the North American market. No career advancement in the US (unless you know somebody in Spain). Sales salaries are way below market average and comission plan was built to make sure you will never make money. Be content with your fixed salary or leave.
