Reviews about "hard work"
Return to all Reviews- Former Employee, more than 5 years★★★★★
Pros
Free food, good colleagues, international environment, fair pay, always opportunities for overtime. Opportunities to work away from home.
Cons
Hard work and tiring, but is to be expected
- Former Employee, less than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
Free food, and hot drinks
Cons
Slavery jobs and with the current shortage of staff, losing out on mystery shoppers number of times as with the amount of works needed to be done, there’s no way we could fulfill mystery shopper expection. Thus not being rewarded for the extra hard work we put in. And with horrible emotionally unstable manager really messed you up. Stay away if you don’t want to have nightmare!

Pros
Lovely manager and all colleagues. Makes working there a nice experience.
Cons
Quite a hard work. If you start at 5 am there is a lot of heavy lifting as you need to sort out delivery. After a while back pain stars to be a normal everyday thing that no one should get for a minimum pay.
- Former Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
Free food while on shift
Cons
Very stressful workplace and hard work conditions

Hard work, early morning shifts
Continue reading - Current Employee, more than 3 years★★★★★
Pros
There use to be some. Not anymore. Unless you like to work 60 hours a week them go ahead.
Cons
Increasingly hard work with little compensation. Long working hours with no choice to work less. Chronically understaffed stores. Stressful environment. Total lack of respect from upper management. Mystery shopper as tool of penalising team. Health demeaging work conditions.
Continue reading - Current Employee★★★★★
Pros
You will make new friends
Cons
They will exploit you as much as they can with no regard for your mental health status and your personal live. You will be a slave there and you will get no recognition for your hard work
- Former Employee★★★★★
Pros
When food was delivered fresh
Cons
Hard work bad pay always stress
