Vantaggi

Opportunities for those who are good at navigating office politics.

Svantaggi

The environment at Blue Square is far from ideal. The micromanagement is overwhelming, and it feels like you're constantly being watched and controlled. There's a severe lack of trust in employees, which makes it difficult to do your job without constant interference. The communication within the company is poor, making it hard to stay aligned and work efficiently. There’s also a lack of transparency from senior leadership, and it seems like they don't care about the well-being or development of their team. The workplace culture is very cliquey, and it’s hard to feel included if you’re not part of the “in” crowd. The pay is subpar, especially considering the workload, and doesn’t seem to reflect the level of effort expected from employees. Overall, it’s not an enjoyable place to work, and I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone seeking a healthy, adult, professional work environment.

Vantaggi

- Got to experience the latest Samsung technology, even issued with tech to use for yourself and show off to customers - Fun training events, at their expense, put up overnight in hotel. - Great benefits and sales commission. Generous time off when you need it. - Room to grow within the company, if desired. But they are also flexible with your own career plans and other commitments.

Svantaggi

- Sales Targets were sometimes a little unattainable, sometimes ridiculous depending on what store you were based in. - You could end up under a bad manager, but luckily this isn't something I experienced personally in my area.

Dear Former Employee, Thank you for leaving us a review of your experience. We're really pleased to hear you enjoyed your time with us and the experiences and opportunities our roles present. We aim to offer a benefits package which suits everyone, whilst the events we execute for brands such as Samsung are always designed to be both informative and engaging. It's great that you have highlighted that these things were part of your experience. In terms of sales targets and KPIs, these are built with detailed analytics tools in order set them in the most accurate way possible. Occasionally contributing factors outside of our immediate control can have an impact on the targets. We're always open to hearing feedback so if people do feel they have a genuine reason as to why targets are unobtainable, they should speak to their line manager. Thank you for also recognising the quality of management. The expectation for all managers in our business is to be skilled, approachable and fair. Although you feel you had a good experience, we'd encourage anyone who feels they are not benefiting from the right kind of support and management to get in touch with us via e-mail at tellsomeone@bluesquare.uk.com. This would allow us to look into any concerns regarding their time with Blue Square. Thanks once again and all the best for the future.
