Pros

The discount card, even though they can be reluctant to give it to you.

Cons

1 As a idea waitrose sounds good as a partnership where everyone has a part in the company, but just like communism in real life it never works. The managers which make up most the staff are lazy I responsible bullies who use there stance to push all there work on the non managers and blame them for there own mistakes. If you are respectful then you will be abused and used at waitrose. 2 if you even think about sick leave you are going to be threatened with a disciplinary or the sack even if your dying they will threaten you to come in. 3 incompetent managers and 0 organisation. 4 workers rights don't exist here mate. It's a joke dont work here for your own good.

Thank you for your review. Discount benefits are available to Partners after 3 months, so I am unsure as to what difficulties you encountered obtaining this benefit? There are some very concerning points that you raise in your review, and I would urge that you look at internal processes to raise these to the relevant people. If you do not feel comfortable doing this then you can email resourcing.socialmedia@partnershipservices.co.uk and we can ensure these are fed back.. We take every Partner’s wellbeing seriously so thank you for sharing your experience and I hope that you are able to find the route that will improve this for you.
