Pros

Loved the small, boutique feel of the shop. Everyone made a great team, and any conflicts were resolved courteously and professionally. Excellent at scheduling, never had an issue if I had to change. Loved my manager.

Cons

The hourly pay, even after a raise, was terrible at £7.20 per hour. Even working a 20 hour part time week, I wasn't close to being able to pay my bills, based on the London Living Wage.

Pros

Kathmandu has excellent POS systems, merchandising materials, and online training. Systems were simple and laid out cleanly. The work atmosphere was quick and busy but very rewarding and interesting.

Cons

Upper management held ridiculous store sales targets based solely on the performance of the year prior. They obviously had never worked in retail before. On the job training could be improved to better learn upselling techniques.
