Pros

People and opportunity to contribute. I join in a role that did not previously exist and I am able to make my own work.

Cons

Lack of focus on long term growth and control. There is a very short term focus on growth, with controls and long term viability not always getting the time it need.

Pros

* 10% discount * options to buy shares through wage * Good pension * Free shares every year * Better benefits and wage than competitors * Subsidised meals (NOT IN EXPRESS) * Good training * Extra holidays at 5, 10 & 15yr anniversarys * Good holidays

Cons

* If the face fits seems to be the key for progression. * The goal posts seem to move quite frequently * Lack of staff in superstore & Extra stores * Lack of investment in retaining staff * Personnel managers generally aren't personable, and when staff go to them with issues, it feels like that we are an inconvience * The divide between night staff and day staff is an us and them culture, but managers do little to improve the divide, nor to sort the issues out for them * So much pressure is on the night shift, due to the staff shortages on days, the night shift are expected to turn the store round, and get beasted when they don't
