Pros
The best reason to work for asda is definitely the colleagues in store, right from the beginning everyone is extremely open and friendly and we all have a great laugh together. The wages are reasonable considering the skill levels required and they offer lots of opportunities to do further training and advance within the company.
Cons
Being left short of colleagues far too often. Most weeks in my store contain at least 2 days where we are left extremely short staffed. This particularly affects us who work the back shifts and who are usually left to deal with all the organisation work of front end at the end of the night as well as taking care of 20 self service checkouts single handed. If the management would give us more contracted hours this would be much less of an issue and it would make working there a lot easier.
