Pros

The customers were nice, mainly elderly people and vegans.

Cons

- Our store team was constantly berated by the head office team for the shelves looking empty, when we they didn't send us the products we needed to keep it filled up. - Constantly lone working but were somehow expected to refill shelves when the stockroom was upstairs, and to help bring in a delivery, but we weren't supposed to leave the store unattended - very confusing mixed messages. - Cashing up was always done alone and the store didn't have CCTV making it feel very unsafe to be doing in full view of the public road. - Not allowed a drink on the shop floor, it had to be kept in the back but again, we weren't allowed to leave the shop floor. Also couldn't go to the toilet. - Stock constantly being kept on the back stairs. - Being forced to keep the doors open in freezing weather conditions! Even the customers were complaining.
