Poor Management at all levels

Pros

Decent pay rate and working colleagues

Cons

Bullying, lying, unable to follow own procedures, like to sing their own praises - are just some of the phrases I would apply to all levels of management. They all live in never-never land and have no idea of what it's like on the shop floor.

Pros

meet some good people, some good benefits like discount with insurance and funeral care. Customers.

Cons

hours, the expectation to work for free and expected to cancel personal plans if shop cover needed. Seems those who work hard tend to get ignored in terms of progression.

Hi there, We definitely don't want any of our colleagues to feel ignored. Did you speak to your line manager about your concerns? Thanks ^Sophie
