We're sorry that you feel this way. Store colleague pay is aligned with the Real Living Wage, which is higher than minimum wage and in recent years the annual pay increase has been higher than inflation. All colleagues are assigned training, both in person and online modules to complete during their training period and if this didn't happen for you we hope that you raised any concerns at the time,
