Best thing
Pay
Flexibility with holidays and booking time off (sometimes)
Some flexibility when inputting your availabilityWorst thing
Managers rarely let you change your availability unless you have no other choice
Managers and crew trainers treat you with disrespect
I’ve been screamed at by managers to the point of tears and they’ve continued screaming after I’ve started crying.
I’ve been called so many names by management
Managers choose employees they like and then treat them differently than others.
Extremely unfair breaks, I’ve worked 6/7 hours before getting a break and I’ve also had my break an hour in and no other break. I’ve also been told to shorten my break.
Older Crew members can be extremely creepy towards the 16-20 year olds and they get no punishment for doing so.
Forced to work in a kitchen on hot days with no ac and rare drink breaks, if there’s no managers around to ask (cos theyre sitting in the office on their phone) and you get a drink without permission you’ll get screamed at.

Best thing
The crew members and area leaders are usually very approachable and you will make friends at work and it can provide a good work environment where you feel welcomed (could be wrong if you are an introverted person)
Worst thing
My shifts get changed all the time without telling me, I will take a screenshot of my rota when it comes out because it means I don’t have to go through the long login process and makes it easier for me. Another thing is they can struggle ringing me if I don’t show up to a shift and will proceed to not let me work the next week aswell.
