Pros

Two half hour breaks in an 8 hour shift 50% discount on most shops

Cons

Super busy environment Understaffed Stressed staff

Welcome Break Response

Thanks for the review. It really is a busy working environment - our sites and hotels are a hive of activity. We are still recruiting for a number of team members to take the pressure off our existing teams - as whilst we do expect to be busy, we don't want anyone to be stressed. Thanks again for sharing your views Justin Justin Morrison / Head of Talent and Resourcing
