Pros

Holidays, overtime if wanted and reasonably flexible

Cons

Under staffed, poorly paid in comparison to other supermarkets while the prices are a fair degree higher. Seem to value fair trade and animal rights, but not really considerate of worker's rights and fair treatment. For example, low hour contracts to suit business purposes, which leave some staff members struggling one month to the next.
