Ventajas

The worked with a nice group of people who did their best.

Desventajas

The Design system is updated they use one the worst design packages on the market. Their design system is not linked to the order system. You have to impute this manually, This builds in errors and boy do Howdens make those. Designs and orders are checked but the chance for errors is high. However, the most demoralizing thing is Howdens opens stores almost together. So, you end up competing against another branch! In my opinion for the price the product is over priced, They do not have a broad range of cabinet sizes. Door finishes lacking in range. Lack of innovation. I worked 44 hours a week (plus a bit more) for the money I might as well of worked at the Tesco round the corner.

Ventajas

Great to work with, training provided with additional support from the other hubs outside London. Learnt a lot and helped in my career as a Contract Kitchen Designer. Pay increases every year. Good overall package in terms of holidays, sick pay and additional cost of living support (it happened maybe twice for the year). Christmas parties were great plus yearly Christmas hampers.

Desventajas

Little to no progression if you want to stay as a Designer, KPIs so expected to have a high turnover on projects, like 1-5 days for a project of 50 kitchen types. It not a job everyone gets even with the additional support.
