Pros

Staff are greatcoat and funny

Cons

The job is unrewarding and unmotivaing. No rewards. Have to deal with weird customers, such as drug addicts, people pooing themself in store, people stealing and general rude customers

Pros

Some nice co-workers It is a fast paced environment so there is always something to do in the store. No time for standing around.

Cons

Staff are not treated excellently. Often punished like children for making small mistakes, rather than dealing with problems maturely. Due to being searched before leaving it could take upwards of 20 minutes to leave work after clocking out, as searches were done in batches (particularly worse if you work the latest shift).
