Vantaggi
interview is great, very relaxed and personality led, mention theatre if you love it.
best work life balance i’ve had, block out dates and cancel shifts with enough notice, ideal for people who want a social life outside work
customers are genuinely some of the nicest i’ve dealt with in any hospitality job.
discounted show tickets and food and drink discounts, decent perks for casual work.
kind young team, if you’re 18 to 24 you’ll fit right in.
cross training is encouraged, good way to build skills and keep your options open across different areas.
Svantaggi
no free food during breaks most hospitality places around the area do offer this so it stands out.
shifts depend entirely on what shows are running, some months nothing, some months loads, genuinely no in between. really wouldn’t recommend for people who need a consistent amount of income monthly at all.
early rota isn’t always the final picture, more shifts can appear as the month goes on so don’t write it off.
in some areas certain people get better shifts and roles, whether that’s down to picking things up faster or just knowing the right people, it’s noticeable.
constant questioning and critical comments in some areas from micromanagers, you’ll feel like eyes are always on you even when you’re doing everything right.
some coworkers on the same pay will act like supervisors, it gets old fast.
progression is very slow,
