Pros

there’s a few tolerable people that actually do their job and don’t drag the whole team down, same goes for managers there’s a couple who are actually doing their job.

Cons

-advertised as “full time” then given 9-11hour contracts. -monthly pay -constant gossiping and childish behaviour -bullying by both colleagues and management -rota’d on for shifts you never agreed to as “overtime” which isn’t paid any different. -the hours are spread over 3-4 days and consist of 3 hour shifts which makes finding another job to work around it near impossible as your entire week is booked out with awkwardly timed tiny shifts -payday may aswell not happen with be fact you can work 6/7 days a week and still pick up less than £800 for a month. -expected to stay for 9-11 hour shifts when only rota’d on for 3-4 hours and even if you decline you’re coaxed into it by constant badgering and bullying. -I could go on but I’m already bored, you get the idea though
