bad place to work for

checkout operator (Former Employee) - leeds west yorkshire - 29 January 2023

you didn`t get the support from supervisors when you needed it also if you were ill some mangers didn`t believe you and would question you about your illness, staff members just walk off when it got busy and then you were stuck to help customers on your own and when you asked for help staff members would give you a funny look

Pros

none

Cons

no support, no advancement

Good employer friendly colleagues felt like a valued member of the team. Couldn't ask for a better salary and company benefits the sick pay is amazing and so is the staff discounts.

Not a nice place to work

Checkout Operator (Former Employee) - Glasgow - 10 January 2023

Constantly hounding you to work overtime, no training given at all. Won't give you annual leave. Hardly get tea breaks. Team leader wasn't a nice person, wouod bully you into doing overtime. Had to put your hand up when working on the checkout to ask if you were allowed to go to the toilet. Wouldn't work there again or advise anyone to work there.

Pros

Nothing

Cons

Long hours

Sad and depressing

Checkout Operator (Former Employee) - Alloa, Clackmannanshire - 30 December 2022

Full of power hungry managers that expect the world but do nothing their selves , avoid at all cost. No overtime rate , no weekend rate forced to work weekends. If you arent in with the right people you will get the worst shifts. The workers themselves are what keep you going, a lot of nice people

Cashier (Former Employee) - Mansfield, Nottinghamshire - 27 December 2022

Nice place to work all the staff are lovely and give you the hours as long as you’re adjustable to various things. Reward people for working with them for so long and get gifts over Christmas etc.

Enjoyable

Checkout Operator (Current Employee) - Basildon, Essex - 1 December 2022

I enjoy most parts of the job, they don’t train you just throw you in the deep end, the only downside is being forced to work in the kiosk ( which I don’t like )

It's ran via Skeleton Crew technique

Checkout Operator (Current Employee) - Ware, Hertfordshire - 18 November 2022

If your super tolerable you'll be OK, the job is fun but the work place environment and management are not. There are good people working here but are failed by lack luster supervision from some managers etc. No one high up seems to have the initiative to take a employee who glows with opportunity and help progress and push there career.

Fine for students

Checkout Operator (Former Employee) - Northern Ireland - 4 October 2022

Easy enough work, decent pay, good colleagues as most are youngBut can be hard to get holidays off when you want and some managers make it hard to work around uni classes etc, 8 hour contracts but some are working 30+ a week, wouldn't get your rota until maybe a day or 2 before the week starts

Worst company i have worked for!

Checkout Assistant (Former Employee) - Bradford, West Yorkshire - 17 August 2022

General Manager and Second Manager were absolutely awful people, They never thanked you for a job well done. I was working 30-50 hours overtime a week. Always told off for petty things. (God forbid if you have a couple of minutes of quiet and you talk to another employee you get told off)

Pros

Nothing

Cons

Pay, Zero respect, constantly telling you off for small things, cant even enquire about your own pay has to go through manager who has to speak on your behalf.

Easy job but poor management.

Checkout Assistant (Current Employee) - Renfrewshire - 29 July 2022

Easy job but poor management and being short staffed make it a stressful and unfair place to work. Benefits and perks being cut as more is being asked of you.

Management are a joke

Checkout Operator (Current Employee) - Hull - 25 July 2022

No flexibility in your shifts and managers tend to be up their own back sides. However, not a difficult job and is easy pay for what it is and it is very stable

Probably wouldn’t recommend

Cashier (Former Employee) - South Shields, Tyne and Wear - 19 July 2022

It’s alright if it’s only temporary but wouldn’t recommend for a long term job as getting rid of people is a regular thing for them. Expect too much from people.
