Pros

The community spirit is fantastic. Colleagues are friendly to each other and mostly share duties and tasks. Ten percent discount card is also nice and there is usually an opportunity to get 20% off once or twice a year in a double discount event.

Cons

As a section leader, the pay is awful. Being expected to fulfill management duties on a regular basis on basically minimum wage and getting no thanks for it is horrible. The opportunity to progress is sometimes hindered and the business is always cutting corners and saving wages which has a knock on effect on staff moral and work ethic. It seems theres 1 rule for one person, and another rule for another in loads of situations which could result in disciplinary action, and it doesnt go unnoticed

Pros

Meeting & making friends with staff as well with the public, also getting a chance to pick up any bargains they had on offer plus getting 10% of anything that was on sale in the store.

Cons

It was hard work for the wages we earned as the store i worked in was the largest store in Britain so we had more work to do than the small stores yet we got the same amount of pay, some nights i had 16 pallets to work as smaller stores was lucky if the had 1 pallet. When we had workers from other stores to come & work at Livingston they said they would never come back because the work they were expected to do.

Pros

The discount is helpful - especially double at Christmas and for George in the summer.

Cons

Overlooked by management regularly, only get opportunities if your face fits, favoritism towards staff members by management and personal grudges often held.
