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
