Now that's what I call a caring corporate group.
John Lewis and Waitrose are offering staff free food from October to January to help with the cost of living.
The meals, during work hours, are for permanent staff, known as partners, as well as temporary and agency workers.

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.I did a contract job for Exxon once -- now Exxon Mobile -- and they had an amazing campus in Houston.
I don't have much good to say about them except they certainly treated their people right. The cafeteria wasn't free but it was very inexpensive. Every week there would be a different guest chef from the city.
Also they had a pool of user cars for employees. If you needed to go anywhere you didn't drive your own car, you signed out one from the guards.
There got to be a running joke on our team. There was a guy from old money Boston and me (I'm from AZ). For whatever reason he and I could walk into a restaurant hours apart and order the exact same meal -- right down to the wine -- on the company of course.
Like I said --- I don't have much good to say about them as a company. But I guess it's easy to take care of your people if you have money. Their regular employees very seldom left.
