Pros

free doughnuts most people are super friendly

Cons

Over-worked, under-appreciated and super unorganised! For example, on Saturday nights only 4 people are on retail despite it being super busy- but on a Wednesday night when it's fairly quiet there's 6 people on retail. When you stay for longer (after your shift has ended) to help out, the shift leader doesn't even thank you for staying, instead she moans when you choose to leave.

Pros

nice people to work with, and of course, doughnuts

Cons

extremely understaffed and leadership refuses to backfill while increasing expectations of shrinking teams. long-term, this is not sustainable and people will continue to leave. internal data is a mess, no confidence in outputs and requires a ton of manual calculation
