"<p>A recurring complaint associated with working at Holland and Barrett is that employees were left to work alone ""for a substantial period of time"", as well as a ""lack of bonuses for store managememt compared to comparable or even smaller companies out there.""<br />A spokesperson for the firm said in a statement to the <em>Telegraph</em>: ""We are one of the very few high street retailers to invest heavily in regular, in-depth staff training and our A-level equivalent qualification in nutrition, which our store associates have to acquire, can take up to a year and invariably prompts a number of associates to find less challenging roles.<br />""Some will no doubt report their version of events on websites such as this although they do have the opportunity to feedback to us directly.""<br />(John Keeble/Getty Images) </p>"
