Vantaggi
Great discount at JL 25% and 15% waitrose discount Holiday homes, yachts and discounts schemes in retailers Final salary non contributory pension scheme which is unheard of these days 6months paid leave after 25years service Holiday entitlement rises by 0.5 days each year.
Svantaggi
Long hours standard 39hour week which at management/ Team Leader level turns into 50 hours very easily due to unrealistic expectations, (9hour days plus unpaid 1 hour lunch) Typical shift 6:00-17:00 No room for progression due to job sharing and saturated top heavy management structure Expectations are extremely high due to partner ethos however, low pay and co-owner when it suits is more the storey sadly. Losing touch with principle 1 Salads in branch roles upto SM/ASM/TL/NMP are way below industry average and not reflective of role responsibilities and expectations Some of the BM's are awful, literally sit in there office and ignore partners
