Best thing
Low hours for students. Good job if you want to be in customer service for your career (particularly management).
Worst thing
Can be pushy for overtime. The work is extremely repetitive and variety is almost non existent. Departing staff are not always replaced which increases workload. Cuts have been somewhat common. If you have plans to move on from retail it can be difficult to get out.

Best thing
It is quite good most the time and the perks are nice as we sometimes get wee extra's in our staff room like chocolate's, fruit, donuts etc Our manager is fair and will always swap shifts when it's possible also holiday dates 😃
Worst thing
Not always having enough time to do what's expected off you but it's not really the managers fault as they have a boss too 🙁

Best thing
Good team of workersin the department
Worst thing
Managers only interested in making money and not much else , like to show face when theres a team visit on so they look good!! No interest in keeping you socially distanced and not much ppe !! Working amongst the public which means verbal abuse especially in this time of covid. It's hard, heavy work

Best thing
Always different and great people. Job isnt too hard
Worst thing
Hard to meet the demands of head office, they dont understand the pressures of what they ask and it's often last minute. We never have enough staff for the amount of hours that need/ asked to cover. Consistently firefighting issues rather than foreseeing change
