Don't get sucked into what ASDA says to you.

Section team leader

Pros

It pays the bills....... sort of

Cons

Poor pay, a lot of stress. Constantly demanding, if you do your best they always want you to do better. Asda is not as flexible as they make out. The new contract "Your Choice" that came out this month is outrageous and its the start of slate labour. My opinion.... find something else. If your face doesn't fit you've got no chance in progression onto Section Leader or higher.. even if you've excelled in everything you do.

Pros

I cannot think of anything positive to put here as there are VERY few pro's about working here. 10% discount in store (hardly a pro) that's about it. FINALLY GETTING OUT OF THERE SOON (biggest pro)......

Cons

Can't give a low enough score....10% discount, Late hours, managers that don't care, poor rate of pay, high staff turnover, THE GOOD ONES GET OVERLOOKED, the but suckers get far.... I could go on, the list is endless.
