Pros

Its a job, fairly straightforward role, pays suprisingly well for a supermarket and is better than not having a job at all!

Cons

Pretty much everything you'd expect! Was extremely disorganised at times in particularly getting your hours for the coming weak sorted out. Not all section leaders are as good as others.
