Pay could be more. Work is easy but can be physically demanding. Needs more of a fun working atmosphere. Overall not a bad company to be a part of. Benefits are good too.

Competitive

Werehouse (Former Employee) - Castleford - 17 May 2022

Very competitive job. They only wanted to do the target nothing else more.Not every time you have everything you need.. You're pushed to do the target.

The hardest part of the job is it’s monotony and repetitiveness, also it’s very physical

Fulfilment Associate (Current Employee) - Bowburn - 16 May 2022

I’m just pleased to have work in these times, I feel the wages could be better.There are opportunities for advancement if you are up to standard with your rates and bide with the rules they have in place

Good pay but long hours

Warehouse Operative (Current Employee) - Doncaster, South Yorkshire - 16 May 2022

Can be a good place to work. But they monitor everything down to the minute. If you go to the toilet for two minutes they want to know why. Daily targets to hit

Pros

Good benefits always giving free things out

Cons

Long hours. Physical job

Good pay

Cons

Tiring job

No chance to get permanent contract

Warehouse Operative (Former Employee) - Peterborough - 15 May 2022

The most difficult problem is that you never can get a permanent contract and they can send you home when that good for them. So you are never safe with that job. I saw so many people who worked so hard but Amazon didn’t give them any chance to stay permanently. I saw so many people crying. So it’s better to avoid this company if you don’t want to be disappointed or even feel condemned .

Not bad for a First job or if you need flexibility

Sortation Associate (Current Employee) - Haydock, Merseyside - 13 May 2022

Its a physically demanding job, however, most of the management is understandable and generally nice. Not the best place to work in, but it is a good start for a first job

Helpful experience

Warehouse Operative (Former Employee) - Dunfermline - 12 May 2022

When I arrived the UK, it was difficult Securing a job but Amazon gave me an opportunity which turned out to be excellent for me.I was hardworking as such did not notice any insurmountable task.Every task I was given, I got trained in it and given days to master it.My job though temporal lasted up to 11months before I changed job voluntarily owing to commuting. Overall experience was great for me.

Pros

Opportunity to move to different departments and learn new skills.

Cons

Commutting

Awful

Delivery Driver (Former Employee) - Ipswich - 12 May 2022

Zero job security. You can be ‘let go’ in the blink of an eye for no good reason.Work your hardest and you’ll feel they’ll value you, they won’t sadly. You are just a number

Pros

No one telling you what to do when you’re out on the road

Cons

Very late start to the day, around 11am

Productive fun place but hard work

Warehouse Operative (Former Employee) - Weybridge - 11 May 2022

Hard work, sometimes more then you can do, people was nice. Probably the only reason because I stayed for nearly two years. If you get the hours you can earn nice money, but if they don't like you .....

Pros

Good pay

Cons

Too much work:(

Fun atmosphere, pop up food stalls - seriously and seemingly endless free chocolate! People great, I loved it!

Cons

Only a 16 hr weekly contract.
