Pros
There are no Pro's unfortunately.
Cons
Well what can I say. I wouldn't even bother applying for a job at this 'Dump'. You get unfairly treated for slightest thing you do wrong (as I was treated) You get no thanks off certain Managers if you do a good days work. This is how you get treated for 5 years service, Ok you get 250 pounds which is taxed (absolute joke) I you want to treated like S... Just come and work at this I recommend it, 😂

Low pay and high expectations.
- 5.025 Sept 2023Sales AssociateFormer Employee, more than 3 yearsWetherby, England
Pros
Great team. People are great. Get the correct training and career opportunities. Great benefits including discount at BNQ, discounts through the Hapi app as well as Simply Health. Shares in screwfix at a discount also. Great chance to progress. Opportunities to do more hours. Double pay on bank Holidays.
Cons
Pay could be better but they do increase every year in line with cost of living. Your manager can make a big difference, like anywhere. Screwfix never seem to close, so working over bank Holidays can be a pain as they do not do reduced opening hours.
