Pros

Keeps you fit. Shifts go quickly

Cons

Your contracted hours are only for a 17wk period in the year. Expected to do full deliveries with minimum staff and unrealistic times. Everything is timed and if these aren't met warnings are given. Health and safety is always broken when it comes to lifting heavy items above head hight. Shifts cancelled half hour before you start. Roster always changes including on your days off resulting in you not knowing when your in. Good hourly rate but minimum hours resulting in it being the same as minimum wage. Moral always down and always expected to give more!

Pros

*Good Pay *Good Bonuses *Fast Paced - Never Get Bored *Can Become A Deputy Manager I work with a group of lovely staff who have all worked there over 3 years some 5+ and we all help eachother out

Cons

*They hire too many new staff who don't no their arm from their elbow (even after training) *Contracted to 25 hours ... could do 18 or 40 !! *Never set days *Can never plan anything - Cancel Shifts left, right and center 1 hours or so before your shift sometimes (when your on your way already) *Timed On Everything *Fast Paced (I like but for many is too much) Can never become an Area Manager or Manager (only Deputy Manger) The managers slave basically .... bring in Graduates who dont even no how to use a till !!
