Pros

Decent pay for my age (I was 21 on £7.50 an hour), (some) good work colleagues, promote from within, good company training

Cons

Terrible management, total lack of disrespect for employees personal issues. Management drove me to leave my job due to disregard for my mental health and utter disgusting behaviour by "team leaders"

Pros

Team got on well, hours weren't particularly harsh (pay not particularly impressive either)

Cons

Overworked due to corporate ruthlessly cutting hours (while hiring more staff?), generally piling on more and more work to the store team without considering time constraints, absolutely no opportunity for advancement while a store manager is already there
