Pros

Nice staff, some nice customers

Cons

Managers are horrible, manipulative, expect you to know everything with very little training, want things done a certain way but don't explain that certain way and moan when you don't do things the way they wanted although they never come out of the office to tell you what to do, expect you to bend over backwards for them and do all the overtime they want and yet they treat you like dirt on the bottom of their shoe, never leave your shift on time even when you ask them 2 weeks in advance to be let out on time. Asked to go above and beyond and do about 6 jobs at once and not once thanked for it. No career progression unless your a favourite to management. Very little things but always consistent and make the job so dull and is the reason that my anxiety has sky rocketed over the past 3 years
