    Dont work here.
    The good thingsThe best part of working here was my friends; we always had each other's backs.
    The challengesThe challenge lies with management. They prioritize sales over employee well-being and make you fight for your annual leave as if it’s not your right. The manager often raises their voice and uses harsh language, displaying both r*cist and misogynistic behavior.
