Pros

Its work experience, good for a first job... maybe

Cons

Constantly changing hours due to people not showing up (having to do 11hr shifts some days). It has been over a month since I started and I still have not received a wage slip. Poor management of the site in its entirety. No staff discount on anything.

Business Outlook

Pros

Generally lovely coworkers Not a whole lot of experience required Generally given 8 or 9 hour shifts Double time on public holidays

Cons

Desperate management, no communication between managers Asked to do multiple tasks at once by several different supervisors Given no training apart from online manual handling 4:30 in the morning starts And in my experience spoken down to constantly by manager and rolling eyes at me when asking for help as little training provided Job advertised as extra money for Sundays but you get time and 1/20th Overall an awful place to work. Not worth it for 9.55/hour
