"Training Manager"

I have come to love the company as a whole, as it's a company that helps one grow. Ever since arriving in the company, I have mastered the art of leadership and working as a team. I learned how to grow and train others. I look forward to running a Branch one day when the opportunity arises.

"Very good learning experience"
Added 31 Jul 2013 by a current employee
I worked for the Lewis Group for about six months before I bought my furniture business. I really learned how to handle customers and about setting up shop. It taught me to handle different personalities and not to disrupt things if they are truly working. This is something I will always appreciate

"A company to work for"
Added 15 Jul 2013 by a current employee
The main point of the Lewis business model is in its inclusiveness and that employees are directly rewarded for success and treated as an essential part of the enterprise. The right winged Tory model of them-and-us, based on class divisions and treating working people as a business cost, a necessary evil, to be put up with for the sake of making a profit. It represents all that is sick in our society today. If it wasn't for the unions, people would still be working for less than a living wage and cast off into poverty when too old or sick to be of use. For both businesses and for society as a whole we do need to return to including everyone and showing proper concern for the welfare of all and not to sink into the depravity of the successful, seeing themselves as the deservedly rich and everyone else being the undeserving, poor.
Best companies to work for in the Retail sector.
