Pros

End of shift Christmas day as its the only day off

Cons

It is advertised as 3.5 hours approx this is always a lie it takes between 6 and 7 hours and that's when you know where all the 130 houses are. It's £40 a morning 7 mornings a week no time off unless you sort your own cover which you never will be able to. About 80 miles a day travelling so with fuel costs and wear and tear on the vehicle your probably earning 3 quid a hour. Worst company to ever work for. Give you 20 drops to start with till you have been there for a week or so then add an extra 20 until you have the full amount, once you have the full amount your probably 2 weeks into the job and unless you give 28 days notice you won't get any pay at all so your stuck. You also have to work 6 weeks to get 2 weeks pay then every 4 weeks will be paid but it will cost a fortune to pay for the fuel upfront for 6 whole weeks 80 miles a day worth. Best thing to do is pretend you never seen the job advertisement. If you do apply and work here then all I can say is good luck and you have been warned.

Pros

None, worst place ever to work!

Cons

Avoid at all costs!!!!! This company breaks every rule in the book! I started off as a driver - the job la are completely mis-sold - they lie about how long the round takes and once you have paid for your fuel you are paid so much less than minimum wage. Was mis-sold the job of branch manager which was an employed position - was paid for 36 hours a week most weeks would end up doing nearly twice that!!! You get spoken to like dirt expected to work all hours 7 days a week and expected to work without breaks / I am in the process of taking them to a tribunal… They are an awful company to work for - most of the reviews on line are fake as, we as employees were made to write reviews because of how bad their reputation is - my advice to anyone is ANYWHERE other than this utter shambles of a company is a better!! If you work here, they will try to dodge paying you what they owe you / you will be expected to work 7 days a week for peanuts and they will charge you 3 x your daily rate if you cannot make it to work - regardless of the reason!!!! Steer clear!!!!
