Pros

Manager experience, nice colleagues, control over how you run a shift

Cons

Underpaid, stressful, if other people run a bad shift then you're left to make up for it, too much responsibility for the pay.

We're sorry to hear that you're disappointed with the pay for your role. We recently increased Customer Team Member and Customer Team Leader pay by 10%. Please do speak to your manager if you are having concerns over your workload or if you believe that other members of your team need support.

Pros

Good pay, good hours, usually good staff

Cons

People suffering from any form of mental disability like autism would usually mean management wants to find excuses to dismiss you (like "disruptions" without further elaboration)
