Business Outlook

Pros

Team was good to work with and worked well together a lot of the time.

Cons

Pay was very poor. Just above min wage so company could claim they paid more then min wage.hours always cut and changed on very short notice. A lot of staff on tax credits for example meant the government is effectively paying for employees rather than the company Also company sick pay was cut in my store no real reason was only in a few stores so very very unfair if you worked in them.

Pros

Good discounts Argos and Homebase. Not a bad job if you enjoy being out and about meeting people. Good training and in the main good people to work with.

Cons

Unsocial hours. Early shift starts at five am late shift ends at Ten pm. Equipment issued is flaky at best, drivers were discouraged from using own satnavs. Poor pay, national minimum. On occasions the delivery times can be tight too impossible to complete. Staff turnover is high.
