Pros

Very friendly people, have onsite canteens, loads of cool benefits, great offices, work/life balance. Main pro is the people who worked there (at least when i was there).

Cons

The pyramid structure at Tesco means you are in levels one or two mostly, the salary band is very vast, but was obvious that not all promotions where work based, rather kissing up to your boss... always a no-no. They also have a very disturbing graduate scheme in which they tend to only recruit posh folk and attractive girls... the latter not so much an issue for me, but definitely noticeable its not about skill but who you know. So main issues are mates in senior positions giving their mates better rates...
