Not what I expected

Pros

Mystery shopper bonuses Free food on shift Short commute to work Met some good people

Cons

If you're looking for consistent hours weekly then this job's definitely not for you! Was hired under the pretence that I'd be required to work a minimum of a 25 hours as a part time staff, and then one month in was only given 1 short shift a week, which resulted in lack of progression. Lack of hours created a hostile environment in the workplace because people desperately wanted more than they were getting and there was always competition for hours. Rules seemed to change every week, which was very hard to keep up with, and some of the managers had obvious favourites and were particularly rude to certain members of staff that they didn't like.
