Pros

The working atmosphere at Waitrose is very nice. All the staff are fully supported. It was my first job out of school and the management were very supportive, I didn't feel intimidated at all!

Cons

I sometimes felt a bit pressured to do overtime! The arrangement of deliveries at Christmas was a bit manic.
