We are a small group of less then 30 employees working together assisting customers with day to day queries and create a great working vibe in a productive manner
Pros
yes Monday to Friday
Cons
8 hours
The environment needs you to be on your toes especially month end and launch days, expect the unexpected, build friendships that turn into family. Core Group (iStore) is the best company to work in
Lots of work
I learned data analysis
Management style is alright
No workplace culture, just work
Hardest part was working with a slow computer
No enjoyable parts

I learned capturing of Client information onto All service Providers if need be and into Apple Database, selling of Apple products according to clients needs and setting up of devices and new Lines and Upgrading Contracts. There's excellent team work and everyone looks out for each other. Management has good leadership skills and they also listen to your concerns.
Working at core group is well with me as we get the chance to gain experience in many thing but I'm not happy as the management does not care about us as workers
Pros
They food is not good at some point
Cons
Can't complain
I just felt I was not a good fit due to 1 specific person I report to as he is set in his ways and is not willing to listen to new ideas or suggestions. Had no leadership from this person and up skilling takes place to assist me in bettering myself or carreer.
Pros
Free lunch
Cons
Not flexible
Typical work day is busy, but you learn everyday with new challenges you face. You are pushed everyday to strive for the best you can be and to adchieve new goals. Work/ Life balance not to par, but new structures being put into place to assist.

Pros
we get to the products before other customer can see or touch them.
Cons
doing Stocktake, robberies
Exciting products and environment, if you are willing to put up with excessive, somewhat unreasonable demands, while job security is not great. Level of organisation, training and structure also much lower than what you would get in a big company. Hierarchy such that employees are not clear on what or how many jobs they are filling. Good for those liking more of a 'cowboy' culture.
Pros
Exciting products
Cons
Disorganisation, lack of training and HR skills, high demands
productive, have great product knowledge and have been exposed to alot i never knew about technology and telecoms, management is not fair most of the time feel like they had their favourites
Pros
free lunches
Cons
long hours

I have wonderful co-workers who have shown me the in and outs of the jobs and who have being very patient with me.
Management have their employees best interest at heart and are easily approachable.
What I love the most about CORE GROUP is that their CEO is very humble and willing to accept suggestions from employees. There is a very much open door approach to the organisation.
