Pros

Friendly environment, everyones makes you feel welcome. Training etc provided isn't just standard training but also experience to make you feel welcome and get used to how things will be in the work place.

Cons

Management are less understanding than colleagues and treat you much like a cog in the machine and make you feel worthless.

Pros

Have worked for ASDA for 13 yrs, seen lots of changes, but enjoy every day. I've seen 6 G.S.M's come through the Store and each one has implemented some brilliant strategies for improvement.

Cons

I really dislike the total lack of respect for mature colleagues, instead of realising they are an important part of the team, they are often treated as if they are already suffering from Alzheimers disease . We have too many team leaders with very little life experience or "people skills "

Pros

Flexible contracts for students and easy to transfer between stores. Good career progression opportunities. Asda stars good scheme if done properly. colleagues are really friendly.

Cons

Breaks differ between stores and aren't implemented correctly, e.g I often had 6 hours between my breaks. Checkout colleagues aren't allowed water with them which can cause health issues as their job is to talk constantly, and they don't have sufficient breaks especially when there is such a huge gap between breaks, and they can't just pop off the till to go to the canteen. Management have favourites who seem to get all the praise, this causes a lack of motivation for colleagues who perform well and go unrewarded and unnoticed.
