Pros

1 pro, flexible working. That's it

Cons

The whole experience was negative, they seem to bully employees so team leaders/managers gain the upperhand, due to their lack of pension knowledge. High labour turn over Low salary increase They time breaks and toilet breaks

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
