Pros

Generally positive atmosphere with colleagues on a similar level Good training Good induction

Cons

- Lack of respect for work life balance - Managers are poorly trained last minute resort individuals who are not suitable for management and often take personal grudges to work. This is reflected by their low pay, just £1 an hour extra than the lowest paying job despite being given an incredibly large amount of additional responsibility and stress. - No 'back up plan' to deal with unexpected absences - Constantly short staffed due to obsession with saving wages, mid level management will often vent their frustration at entry level colleagues despite them having no say with the regards to the number of colleagues working
