I currently work for currys, so forgive me for not leaving email address etc... Currys has became increasingly difficult to work for, they have introduced an even more ludicrous payment scheme and it has not went down well with staff!! I regulary hit 140% of targets and sell more than enough warranties and credit terms, but if the store doesnt hit target, then all my hard work is for sod all! It does make you wonder why we bother, more and more customers (sorry, guests!) are trying to haggle don prices or go online. if this keeps up the customer base will dry up and the stores will be forced to close!! I for one will not be surprised if DSG dump currys and PC world and focus on the digital shopper market!!
i agree with previous comment i used to work for currys and you hit the nail on the head there used to be mystery shopper bonus as well as commission now the new bonus system is a joke as they raise the targets so u cant achieve it
dont forget currys who does specialise in deals for the customers got rid of commission which was replaced with a crap bonus scheme unfair to good sales staff and put even more pressure on selling finance and warrantys and less on volume of products ,this had a significant effect the way we sold to customers in the branch i worked staff shyed away from customers worried they would not acheive their targets ,and lots more part timers were employed making store targets harder ,
