Pros

• Decent pay in comparison to other supermarkets • Friendly staff members and always willing to lend a hand • Company give extra perks loaded onto membership cards occasionally • Flexible shift pattern

Cons

• Management are looking to have 1 on 1 shifts (2 people per shift) which can get stressful • Store managers are helpful but everyone else above their level on the organisational hierachy are very intimidating to interact with, and treat those below them, like subordinates • After being a team leader, there is no team manager role anymore and therefore chances of progression within the organisation is very limited and difficult

Pros

Team got on well, hours weren't particularly harsh (pay not particularly impressive either)

Cons

Overworked due to corporate ruthlessly cutting hours (while hiring more staff?), generally piling on more and more work to the store team without considering time constraints, absolutely no opportunity for advancement while a store manager is already there
