Pluspunten
Staff discount was generous, good pay for all ages. I was on a four hour contract but was often given more during busier periods. Ingredient tips were interesting and daily goals were good aims for progress. Lovely customers and we had a customer who would visit each week with sweets.
Minpunten
Lots of gossip occurred in my shop. Many temporary staff left before Christmas because of this. Supervisors pick favourites and are good at making you feel unwelcome and/or unwanted. Being in with 'the crowd' was important to get shifts that would match your availability. Complaints did not get taken seriously, my friend was bullied by one of the female supervisors and this was laughed about when she complained. There was a lack of training and many staff were told that our knowledge of the products was not good enough. I was always underpaid each month and often ignored when I brought this up. Little to no praise was given from management however permanent staff members were encouraging. Gifts were stolen on a regular basis and all management would be in the staff room. Blame for stock loss would be passed to employees.
