Pros

Friendly and kind staff members who help you to learn job duties as fast as possible. Also some of management people are ok, understanding and during bussiest hours helping as much as they can. Also free food for staff is very good thing.

Cons

Long hours and as new one in training ( I signed for mixed shifts with preference to normal daily morning/afternoon shift because I comute from far and in late night and early morning have problem with transport so I waste lots of time for getting to home. But after starting to work I was given mostly nightshifts and when I tryied to sort it out I was told I got job only because I was willing to do also nightshifts - which I thought it will be 1, max.2 per week not 4 in row and next shift starting with another nightshifts ) I got mostly nightshifts in row in bussiet days, which can be very stressful and especially in night you get customers who have no manners how to dine(or are drunk) so when public opening time is over you spend yet nother hour or more by just cleaning the mess which is awful. Also there is no time to do anything in house youneed to do or to spent some time for yourself when have nightshifts in row just come to home, sleep, eat and go to work again. I would recommend only if you need some job to start to or when you look for better job to fill this gap instead of being unemployed.

Pros

Easy job Free food Not a lot of rules so quite chill Some of the assistant managers are quite chill and try to help you, when I had any issues or there was worries about my safety they’d speak to me straight away- not as a manager but as an actual person. Easy to work up through positions within the store, but not head office.

Cons

Sexual harassment & poor dealing with sexual harassment Poor management/didn’t have a manager most of the time I was there A lot of drama created by older employees Sexist af Really toxic environment for young girls, you basically get either talked down to or groped the entire time you’re working there Three months in I was teaching others how to use tills/just eat when it was just me on till on Christmas Eve, it was genuinely horrific.
