Pros

It was pretty decent pay for a temporary retail position, we were also given food coupons to spend at supermarkets.

Cons

Management is mediocre at least - ignorant people who feel threatened by employees with a minimum of education. Very in-group feeling - senior retail assistants were really tight with management, never getting picked up on even if they weren't doing things properly. My colleagues tried on clothing during working hours. They turned away customers because they could not be bothered to help them!

Pros

My coworkers and Managers felt like a family I felt supported and was able to make good connections At the time I was there my managers made it feel less daunting to ask questions or come to them if I had concerns about customers . I feel like if I stayed with Zara longer I would have been able to move within the company easily.

Cons

Air conditioning didn't work while I was there.
