      Pros

      High pay rate compared to competitors. High amount of overtime work with 150% pay rate. 32+ holiday days. Some membership benefits.

      Cons

      No opportunities whatsoever. Team leaders consider themselves masters of life and death abusing their position to controll employees by threats, suspension in employee rights and sacking. Annual premium cut out for low grade employees due to poor company situation. After years company bounced back on its feet while annual premium is still locked out for operatives. Obligatory overtime work up to 4 times a year. Boxing day is the one and only bank holiday off work.

      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
