Best thing
good pay, good young staff, good discounts and benefits

Best thing
it’s a partnership and everyone treats everyone else kindly and with respect, plus the managers actually get their hands dirty when they need to if we are understaffed you can see managers on tills or doing date code checking even potwash , they also care a lot about our workers rights
Worst thing
other than not being paid for breaks not getting trained properly just getting thrown into it and expected to just “know”
