Business Outlook

Pros

Interesting projects and good people to work with. High intensity environment so never bored.

Cons

Constant change, re-organisation and changes in approach to delivery (in IT area). Conflict & politics between teams and leadership. Culture of blame the messenger. Unrealistic expectations from 'business' who seem to thrive on super aggressive approach to everything.

Business Outlook

Pros

Flexible hours Late starts if your a cashier ( 1pm) Tips :) (Saved mine and brought a new laptop) Nice customers that bring you snacks :) Always more hours available Able to work in other stores Work in quiet stores where you take less than 100 bets (Can be a con but easy life) Sit down all day (can be a con but getting paid to sit and chill) Opportunities to move up Cashier to manager Great Christmas Party :)

Cons

Busy stores = Stress (taking up too 1000 bets) Disrespectful customers Customers breaking machines Customers slow counting you Very late finishes (10:30pm everyday) Open 7 days a week (can be a pro you can work more) Sports i'm a female (pro if you love sports) not a good bonuses if you beat your target Customers is more important then the staff they would rather get rid of you and keep a rude high staking customer.
