Pros

There are so many Pro's, I LOVED working at Waitrose, I was made a Wine specialist at 23 and I ran my own wine department for 6 happy years. I felt that it has a family atmosphere where by everyone pulls together and everyone is in it together, also I feel that everyone really cares about you as a person and not a number. Waitrose gave me so much and I'll always be grateful. I've met so many amazing people.....The only reason I made a decision to leave was because I have a massive drive for ambition and I wanted to progress in the wine industry, and Waitrose unfortunately don't offer any higher courses past wine specialist.

Cons

The cons are really only, stress and very fast paced, not fantastic pay but you do get yearly bonus
