| Comment | That's because they're part of the John Lewis Partnership. I can tell you from experience working for them (not Waitrose) that the whole "partners" co-op thing they pride themselves on is pretty much baloney. You get paid terrible wages, and you get very little in the way of a "share" in the profits. Their bonuses were honestly just insulting more than anything whilst I was there (we were lucky if we even got one some years). We really need to blow the lid of JL... I know many of the employees I worked with at the time shared the same sentiments, like they were being lied to and conned, unappreciated, exhausted and underpaid for the incredibly hard work they do. I will say this, John Lewis/Waitrose has a very good propaganda outlet which makes their biggest demographic, predominantly middle class shoppers believe they are a very reputable company to work for. Nothing could be further from the truth. |
