Pros

The discount is very good, the staff are all lovely. The company sources food ethically and is honest about its practices

Cons

Waitrose is battling to survive in the retail food market and isn't as pleasant to work for as it is perceived. Very hard work and understaffed, customers are more challenging and 'entitled' than you'd expect from a supermarket.
