Good to shop with terrible to work for, I went to Waitrose and JL when leaving school because my mum banged on that they'd be so good with my health problems, after a year I had an argument with a manager comparing my sickness to his, "I have colitis, half my bowel removed and 12 months ago I'd been housebound for a year after having a bag reversed and this was the person he was comparing sickness too" half the managers I had were lovely other half awful. I got put in departments completely impractical for my health problems. I went for another role at Waitrose DC, a night's role, 2 days into my training week I find out they've put me on 6-2 mornings which I cannot do, nobody asked, I was just put on mornings without any knowledge. The biggest problem with this company is they have such a jumped up image and all the so called partners are delusional that they think you should be honoured to work for them like getting into the partnership is the height of achievement. They all need a wake up call from the floor staff, to HR to management that they work in a shop.
