Pros

Friendly and supportive team members who help make busy shifts manageable Good training at the start, especially for systems and customer service standards Flexible shift patterns compared to some other retail roles Clear processes for handling customers, refunds, and collections Decent staff discount when combined with Sainsbury’s

Cons

Can be extremely busy during peak times with high expectations and limited staffing Pay does not always reflect the workload or pressure, especially during holidays Targets and performance metrics can feel stressful rather than motivating Rotas can change at short notice, making work-life balance difficult Dealing with frustrated customers is a daily challenge, often with little downtime
