Pros

- Boxing Day and New Years Day off - You get paid for every minute you work - 10% staff discount but 20% over Christmas

Cons

- They don't give contracted hours - or any at all which leads to undertime and no pay. - They don't amend shift start times according to travel arrangements - They don't organise shifts and rotas fairly - they say you only work 2 saturday and 2 sundays a month but you'll always work 90% of them. - Management is poor - Area managers are never available to talk to about work issues - Management swear constantly

Pros

Intelligent engaged people, Modern offices, Decent pay, and good retirement benefits.

Cons

Growing pains of a European company modifying its business to grow its American footprint. Senior leadership was mostly European. Felt disconnected from American grocery culture.
