Pros

Free ‘healthy meal lunch. Free uniform Free parking Do your job, go home n forget about it. Local Reasonable pay for work involved.

Cons

Non existent team work in my area. Stuck on checkout after 30 mins training and that’s it. 6 hr shifts stood in enclosed Perspex checkout with 20 min break. Virtually no interaction with other colleagues. Was led to believe at interview that I would be carrying out a variety of tasks and would have buddy for training. Team leaders and management have no time to help with basic HR issues. So boring

Pros

The benefits are nice, with paid sick leave and holiday hours. They took the covid situation seriously and I was paid for my mandatory quarantine. Coworkers are very friendly.

Cons

The way things are now, employees are very frustrated. We are grossly understaffed, and the rest of us are needing to try and balance the weight of this responsibility, and it wears on us. There are 7 leads over customer service, and you need to talk to at *least* 4 to get anything important accomplished. Upholding policy is very difficult as management does not defend employees or its own policy and instead folds to the demands of customers.
