Working 5 jobs for less than the pay of one. - Customer Assistant Scotmid Employee Review

You often don't know your working hours as they change on a week to week basis with no consistency and you often don't get told until the day before the weeks rota starts. Payed minimum wage for a single job despite the fact we have to work the tills, and stock the shelves, and work in a mail room, and work in a kitchen, and we aren't given the resources to do any of them. Permanently understaffed, often requiring the only two workers to be behind the tills most of the day, despite the fact there's 20 jobs to be done each day. The bare "legal" minimum time for breaks, even in the late shifts when the workers have to have their dinner, they still only get given 20 minutes. No progression for most of the staff and there's no benefit to progression anyway since they pay barely increases but the jobs do. People being forced to get promotions in order to increase their hours since we're chronically underpaid, in fact we're the lowest paid convenience store employees in the country. Nepotism, the store suffers from sever nepotism as a quarter of the employees are related to other employees at the same store. And those staff members get preferential treatment.
