      Christmas temporary sales assistant
      Former employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Regular fair breaks - I did 5 hour shifts and had a 30 min break, others who did 7-8 hours got 1 hour lunch break and 30 mins in the afternoon I have a disability and used a handheld fan or neck fan and they never minded, so I think fairly inclusive and supportive of those with disabilities Supportive and friendly atmosphere amongst fellow sales assistant and temps, most managers were friendly and helpful too Would have stayed there longer if it hadn't been a temporary contact

      Cons

      It was quite gossipy Very busy and fast paced until Christmas - last week or so of contract there wasn't loads to do Some people didn't like the long breaks because you would be at work for a longer time Some miscommunication between managers and supervisors but it was a busy time of year

      Meh
