Pros

Great pay per hour. Great progression available (If you're under 25, preferably under 18) Staff discount (10% across all depts) Pension Local fundraising available for charitable causes upon request and after being reviewed Wages tend to go up each year, always above the nat min wage/living wage Rewards for spotting theft alerts etc

Cons

Where do I even start. If you are disabled, have any health issues, are over 25 (over 18 in most cases), or have your own mind, don't even bother. Waste of energy. If you are any of these things, you will be overlooked for training with excuses, any ideas or serious discussions you want to have will be dismissed and god forbid your managers have a bad day because YOU will be the one they take it out on. There is no respect for older members of the team at all, no leeway regarding time off even though you are EXPECTED to be at their beck and call no matter what, management constantly passive-aggressive especially if you are unable to come in with less than 30mins notice. Rotas are done and posted late, we get no more than a week's notice. Managers have been known to insist people come in whilst on booked time off/holiday to work. Being ill is frowned upon heavily, if you try to call in sick make sure you pack lightly for the guilt trip you'll be going on. Rewards mentioned in the pros section only apply if you're under 25 or are the golden child. If you are neither of those, but work hard because that's what you were employed to do, don't expect anything but your wages and a big bucket of attitude in return. Oh and also don't expect to leave when your shift ends. Add another 30mins minimum. But you must be there on time, or you'll be written up.
