Pros

The people. There is a great sense of team work in Superdrug and a very supportive structure of people from store level through to HO. I have long service and have progressed up from a Saturday sales assistant into a HO field role. Progression opportunities are fantastic.

Cons

Workload can be heavy and you need commitment and dedication to be able to balance with the pressure that often comes from working in this typical Retail environment.

Pros

Good discounts (10% everything 30% exclusive and own brand) and extra discount at Christmas and Summer for a week.

Cons

Always expected to do extra hours-without being asked, asking for time of is awful, if you don't meet the (high) targets you get into trouble and your job get threatened(happened to me more than once), full time staff (young and old) are horrible to part time staff, very little training, little opportunities to progress
