Pros

Staff discount. Job stability. Teaches resilience. A few managers. Nice customers

Cons

5am starts. 11 hours between some shifts. Long shifts. Always out late. Understaffed. Forget your unpaid 30m break. Dishonest Store managers. Hard work. 20% doing 80% of the work. Everyone is cutting corners to meet timed targets. No warehouse space, constantly blocked fire exits. Invasive whatsapp work group. Nasty customers. Culture of blaming and denying responsibility.. the list goes on.
