    Arundel QLD 4214Less than 1 year in the role, former employee
    I enjoyed my time here, it was good to pass the time while studying and the store was great with excellent management.
    The good thingsThe job was not too hard, a good place to earn money while studying and gain experience. It really helped me get my foot in the door in the employment realm.
    The challengesIt can be understaffed, there is minor micromanagement from others on your level and unequal work load. It can be a very unfair team work situation.
