The management run you into the ground. They don’t respect or appreciate anything you do, you get overlooked and they have “favourites” within the business. The office staff are overworked and take it out on the shop staff. There are policies and rules for everything, it’s like working under “big brother.” No flexibility, if you require this you basically get told to leave. You can’t stay at one shop and are expected to cover other shops at the drop of a hat - generally because they got rid of so much staff during Covid they now can’t cover sickened and holidays. I noticed that whilst working there, it was one rule for one and another for you - linking back to the favouritism. The shops are all full of cliques and you are pitted against each other at every given point. 

Not a great place to work. Glad to have left. 


You are just a number, no loyalty and spoke to by office and management like you are rubbish, shops falling apart no investment in the shops, short staffed expected to just cover so you are very much overworked and constantly tired but they don’t care. Owner has no idea how to delegate so has to micro manage everything. Don’t expect a break either it won’t happen 

The company expect Assistant Managers and Managers to start work over an hour befor there payed start time . Also there are no breaks for example no dinner . There for you could be working from 6am in the morning untill 5pm without an hour away from the job. They do not recognise Bank Holiday .

Working in the shop is a very fast paced environment - it is normal to have a shop full of customers and a queue forming outside of the door. However busy it is, it is enjoyable as there isn’t much stress involved and all of the other members of staff assist each other as best they can, making you feel better.

Early starts (6:00am) but early finishes, easy to balance social life, school work and the job. Nothing too hard, really friendly staff and customers. Loved my time there. 

good place to work with lots of friendly staff that are always there to help each other out in a crisis. 

Free parking and half price lunch and free new product taste testing.

To many staff going behind each other's backs...Even good workers get complained about...managers defiantly don't know how to do there jobs in the bakery 

Got laid off my job because I have Epilepsy and they knew from the start. Not N/A. Unhelpful staff treated me like I was a nobody, rude, disrespectful.
