Really disappointing

Pros

I'll be fair and give the pros as well as the (many) cons. Pros: - 10c fuel discount - maximum of 50L a week - Free staff meal - only on Circle K brand sandwiches/ drinks. Better than nothing for sure but not a huge selection. - 10% premium if you work on sundays

Cons

Where to begin? -Horrific head office - most store managers are fine and do their best. - Expected to stock the store to the brim when theres only 2 people on shift.. yet also expect all office work and emails to be done/replied to. - Despite this struggle mentioned above, there trying to push for lone working in all stores. - Pushed to meet ridiculous targets so that store and area managers can get their bonuses, no such bonuses for staff. - Head office do not care about staff concerns or complaints. HR will acknowledge receiving an email and never respond - Horrible communication from superiors.

Pros

The colleagues are great, but undervalued

Cons

Probably the worst job I have ever had. I work crazy hours, never get to spend time with my family and am criticised by senior leadership regularly for not meeting their unrealistic expectations and have zero regard for process and time lines. People are not valued in the organisation which seems engrained in the culture.

Pros

There is not so many good reasons to.work for this company as they don't really offer you anything.just some fuel discount that you can only get it at the site where you work.

Cons

No fixed roster.taxi drivers have more discounts than you have as an employee..which is ridiculous.no insurance.no real.benefits.
