Best thing
College discount and hours given as well as availability of food as you work in a supermarket. Great mangers who are really understanding, but we need a replacement checkouts manager. Hardly any complaint on the environment and amenities are always available and well maintained. Great store and kind staff who respect one another. It's far superior to any other retail positions I've worked prior, and has great working befits to add.
Worst thing
The hourly pay could be increased to match the rising cost of things, the constant theft of products adds a lot of unwanted stress to staff and they should really invest in a proper security officer. Breaks aren't paid for but are shorter to combat this, so you could work 9hours but only received 7.5 hours pay.

Best thing
You have the occasional customer that is lovely to chat to and have a great conversation with most to all of them, Managers sometimes treat you with respect (Sometimes )
Social Colleagues
Team Support are most understanding than managers which if you work in a Front End Service, you deal with them moreWorst thing
Unpaid Breaks, Self Service after 10pm can be scary and alot of times there isn't a security guard to assist you or even if there is, there isn't a way to contact them than shouting.
Get threated with disciplinary's if you try to call in sick for a emergency issue
Head Office / Managers usually don't understand the Stress the colleagues have to deal with
Managers will pull you into the office for something you haven't done and still try accuse you even if you show proofTesco Customer assistant, March 2023
