      Pros

      Finishing your shift and you get to go home.

      Cons

      Stressful Understaffed Higher ups constantly demanding the in possible Fairness, bullying and harassment policy isn't worth the paper it is written on. Treat people rudely Health and safety only applies when they feel like it. Don't care about their staff Constantly getting abused More worried about if their staff is stealing rather than the actual public Every thing is very looooooong to do anything in the coop they need new systems. You put a Grievance in about a SM and yet they allow the same SM to rate your performance which goes on your record.

      Pros

      Team got on well, hours weren't particularly harsh (pay not particularly impressive either)

      Cons

      Overworked due to corporate ruthlessly cutting hours (while hiring more staff?), generally piling on more and more work to the store team without considering time constraints, absolutely no opportunity for advancement while a store manager is already there
