Pros

Worked here as a graduate. Absolutely appalling people to work for. Staff dropping like flies, no staff, expect miracles with no hours. Leave young female workers to open and close the shop from 5.30am and finishing past 11pm. Never pay staff extra for staying on and will discipline if they don't finish their work.

Cons

Managers get 30 minutes break if your lucky within a 12-13 hour shift. As a graduate I was shocked and couldn't wait to leave. Worked me into the ground and had no life outside work as my life was farmfoods.

Pros

15% discount Nothing else is a pro

Cons

Micro management I’ve never experienced in 10 years of retail management. They’re living in the stone ages in terms of technology. Hourly staff get paid to 15 mins so upper management will try and shaft your pay in the name of prod, no clock in/out machine so you’re reliant on managers clocking you accurately. Everything they do is just weird and backwards. They don’t believe in employee law, 11 hour rest period being the big one.
