8/10

9a. Would you recommend Greene King to a friend?

Yes

9b. Why?

I think GK is a very good company to work for. I am very grateful I’ve been supported by the furlough scheme and GK for almost a year and a half. However, I think the pay per hour/salary should be higher (specially in London). It’s not a living wage.

10. What tips or advice would you give to others applying to Greene King?

Just be hardworking and LOVE what you are doing. Care for your job and your colleagues and you’ll be rewarded ?
