Pros

None. Zero. Zilch. Nada. Nothing I would give it a minus rating of I could. Most humiliating experience of my working life

Cons

No training. Unsafe work environment. Poor management and unfriendly colleagues. You are given no training on the tills, this is left to other staff. Manager was accusing people of theft via a WhatsApp group. If you work on your own at night, the shop door does not lock. It is impossible to get hold of anyone from HR or an area manager - a number was left on a wall but the number was incorrect. None of the stuff that needs fixing gets fixed - one of the pumps doesn't pump petrol properly and you have to deal with the complaints. The staff constantly complain and shifts are given to friends/ favourites. I had to go on LinkedIn to find HR details.
