  • Best thing

    The discount, colleagues are lovely. Easy to book holidays . Never have to worry about how many hours I work because everything is contracted.

    Worst thing

    Customers can be rude. Managers are condescending, breaks are short. High pressure environment. Manager is unorganised and doesn’t communicate. Sick is not paid. Sometimes I don’t get my entire pay
