More Pros and Cons
“Part Time Sales Job”
Former Employee – Sales Associate in Huddersfield, England
Doesn’t Recommend
Neutral Outlook
No Opinion of CEO
I worked at Mamas & Papas part-time for more than a year
Pros
Discounts on items, some of the other employees were lovely to work with
Cons
Awkward working pattern, management were all ‘best mates’ so stuck together with employees in this clique in situations that were right or wrong, lack of training, unprofessional management team.
Advice to Management
Listening to your employees is vital for feedback on pros and cons of layouts, processes etc, however this was not done when I worked at the company. Management tended to be very hypocritical as they would tell employees to ensure they weren’t stood talking on the shop floor, but would then be on their phones or chatting on the shop floor. Management stuck together with employees they were mates with in right or… wrong.

“Application stage”
Doesn’t Recommend
Neutral Outlook
No Opinion of CEO
I have been working at Mamas & Papas
Pros
N/A – unable to say as my application is still yet to be acknowledged
Cons
Having applied for a senior position some weeks ago and did not receive any feedback or update. To my dismay, the advertised job which was an interim position had since been re advertised recently and yet the company do not have the courtesy to contact applicants. Neither is there an option to contact them requesting the same. Terrible ethic and frankly disappointing.
Advice to Management
Treat everyone with respect by at least acknowledging them.
