Pros

Perfect job for casual work as a full-time student. Staff are enjoyable to work with and hours are generally quite flexible. Pay is better than working in hospo, especially if you get rostered on for weekend or holiday shifts.

Cons

The new systems put in place by management are not as efficient and effective as the old system. Currently our store is heavily understaffed but we are still expected to complete all tasks
