Pros

You gain a lot of experience

Cons

- lunches are free but they are horrible. You do not expect this from a place like Burberry - management does not exist. - the hierachy at Burberry is insane. Never worked in a place like this - you do not get breaks. No lunch breaks everyone eats in front of their computer - you are never there for the right working hours, its always over time/weekends and the company does not pay your for the extra time - as an assistant you work a lot, and are not paid for it. You are expected to do so many things every single day, but do not have time for it. - Management talks to you like you are stupid. - some work takes you ages and is flagged as a priority but then no one looks at it - you are expected to work non-stop all day
