Pros

Friendly stuff, good end of year party's, fair prices and deals for customers and stuff,

Cons

Low hour contracks, low pay, low stuff, can be a stressful place to work on busy shopping days, weekends, there's a really need to fit in or you won't go far within your role, more a job than a career

Pros

Good colleague support - I work on the checkout, and learnt far more from colleagues than from very brief, and in my opinion, inadequate "training". Section leaders usually friendly and communicative, and try to be supportive. Job can be interesting as every new customer has different needs and expectations, which greatly alleviates the tedium of the repetitious aspect.

Cons

Low pay, management's focusing on trivia like colour of nail polish to be worn, when daily customers are complaining about length of checkout queues, too many missing items on shelves and not enough checkouts open. Could do with listening more to what customers actually expect from shopping at Asda, and making it easier for them to express opinions, suggestions etc. Also at present very understaffed - especially on selfscan/hybrids - making it potentially easier for theft to go undetected. Inadequate security. Some checkouts too narrow for larger pushchairs, customers with disabilities etc. Being spoken to and treated like children (I don't see the "respect for the individual" much in evidence here)- patronising "training" videos.

Pros

Good wage, flexible hours - overtime always available - flexible environment

Cons

working in a bigger store you have a manager on your back about overtime even though you are doing your hours and full time university in the week. But in a smaller store you can build relationships, managers let you get on with your job.
