Home Bargains Employee Review
Great friends, not so great managers.
Customer Assistant (Former Employee) - Skelmersdale - 24 November 2022
You can make some awesome friends here, but find a lot of people who will talk about you behind your back. Some of the managers have no clue what's going on and don't bother to communicate. You get stuck on a till, and screamed at by customers. Long hours for rubbish rate of pay, not even £10 p/h for over 25's. Fine for short term but wouldn't recommend it for a long term job.

Managers Not wonderful
Customer Sales Assistant (Part Time) (Former Employee) - Banbridge, County Down - 26 January 2023
Managers come and go and I know now why!! The amount of talking they do behind each others backs and about other staff members to other staff members. They need to learn to treat others with respect as well the way they speak to you. I have moved to another competitor and I can’t believe the difference in the management team, the way they talk and treat us so nicely no matter what age you are. So glad I made the move.
Pros
Lovely staff
Cons
Management to to be taken down off their high horses.

Customer Assistant (Former Employee) - Scunthorpe, Lincolnshire - 15 December 2022
Management don’t care about work life balance will put you down for shifts without asking. They make you work 5 days for a 24hr contract and days off aren’t together. Management nasty and shout at you from down the aisle

Aokay
Store Team Member (Former Employee) - Skelmersdale - 21 December 2021
Fast paced, sometimes slow payroll issues but generally benefited by the frequency of weekly pay, seemed understaffed and overtime was regularly available
Pros
10% off
