Pros
Its a job Keeps you Fit Most of the staff are friendly.
Cons
1 Under paid and overworked due to being understaffed. 2 Ruthlessly Austere, they sack managers and employ colleagues as Section leaders, on a fraction of the wage. 3 They mislead customers with "rollback" offers. The company does not mention that they put the price up on the product a week before. 4 Very little communication between anyone. 5 Poor Professionalism. People applying for jobs and finding out they were unsuccessful when someone starts the job they applied for. Section leaders finding out someone else, in the store, is in line for their job before they have been told to step down. 6 The companies values and the charity work are not genuine. Its just to try and create a good public image. Basically a PR ploy. 7 Staff are on minimum contracts, yet are often encouraged to do overtime. This is so the company can save money on holiday pay. 8 Working Christmas eve or New years day is usually time and a half. A terrible rate. 9 Most colleagues over 40 have physical disabilities to varying degrees. This is due to the nature of the work and the speed required to carry out the tasks. 10 Promotion usually means you get a full time job, but spend most of that time still filling shelves. The only difference is you get a small pay rise, and you are expected to cover holidays and sickness. Basically, they have you over a barrel.
