Pros

- Nice supervisors - Good management - Lots of overtime available - Nice colleagues - Good breaks - Uniform provided - Good training

Cons

- Low Pay! - Under 18 is £4.97/hr. I think 18-21 is around £6/hr and 21+ is just over £7/hr - You only get an employee discount at Christmas (10% I think)

Pros

Great friends and that is literally it.

Cons

Managers are appalling. Can't agree amongst themselves let alone you. Younger manager acting like he owns the place. Some there supervisors are bullies. And rewarded with promotions for it! But the worst thing is how they treat Thier female staff. God help you if you have a day off sick it's a massive inconvenience. Disrespectful rude ignorant abusive. Not a place I'd ever work again.
