Pros
- like talking to people -wage was £6.56 when I was there which was above national wage at the time - location was convenient- Leeds Headrow
Cons
-random shifts each week which meant that you couldn't plan ahead, which was annoying considering it was the Christmas holiday period. also, on the same shift you can be put on the tills or on several departments and people exploit this and deliberately don't do anything so that when you come to that area e.g. women's clothes, it is a tip -was not allowed to leave until my area was clean (i.e) all items picked up from the floor, rails in size order etc. My team leader never appreciated the fact that I went above and beyond, I always completed my role in the time allotted but when I had finished I was just moved around to do more work because other were slacking. - they don't treat Christmas temps with respect, they claim to have full time jobs available after and use this as a ploy to get people to work hard but in reality, they have no intention of keeping anyone on.
