Pros

work with a wide variety of people which is always a good thing. The Asda discount card. The canteen in the morning serves hot food incase you don't have your own.

Cons

You get overlooked a lot of the time, especially on our department of home shopping. ie, management team have been well known for lying, fast judging, and making Accusations which have only led to reporting them for bullying.
