Pros

I joined the business 8 months ago and cannot fault it. I have worked for a number of large corporates and none of them compare. The one thing that stands out the most are the people. Superdrug certainly lives by their slogan 'That Superdrug feeling' as everyone who works here has it. I never worked at a company with such a friendly people. It shows that people enjoy working here as so many of them have worked in the business over 10 years. We have great communication, great perks including discounts and good benefits and the senior management team are all approachable - which in many companies is unheard of. Very happy and proud to be working for such a good employer 

Cons

Taking advantage of my staff discount and spending to much in store! Not got anything else to say in this section!

Pros

Good training and development structure with opportunities to progress if you are ready willing and able. Great common sense approach to everything. Most of the higher management have worked on the shop floor and know the job inside out. If you don't know something just ask, there is always support when you need it. Great bonus scheme.

Cons

None that I have personally encountered in the last 3 years...
