Pros

The most best reason that make you working with this company is are flexible, when ever you need a break or ever have to move somewhere else for a while and you comeback and you still have your place at the unit, I know the hourly rate is completely Nothing but still the only opportunity for the ones without any qualification :(.

Cons

As been already mentioned, the wages are really ... comparing the effort you doing ( you do the job of two Royamail postie and still getting half what they get paid ), the uniforms also made from cheap quality and if you ask for a spare you will never get another one, the bike: you will be risking your life mates :), target time: you have to kill your self to get that :).

Pros

The team are great and supportive. Clients are lovely

Cons

Feels like senior management are out of touch with the real needs of their employees. When things are fed back multiple times, they are used as box ticking exercises and then brushed off.
