Smiggle UK Careers and Employment

Smiggle, despite branding themselves as a fun and upbeat company, drain their employees physically and emotionally. I constantly felt looked down on and was threatened with a smaller contract if I was to prioritise my education over my job (even though they assured me they understood education is more important). I was made to feel stupid for asking for easy accommodations when I fell ill for a while and they made me feel like I was to blame when I had to report a coworker for crossing professional boundaries.

Fun workplace and productive

I have enjoyed my time at Smiggle as my contract was only temporary, which I wished i could've stayed longer. I got along with the manager really well, such a lovely person and colleagues were amazingly helpful :)

Do Not Recommend

I was a supervisor and had worked in the store since it first opened.Pay was awful.Hours were awful.Management were awful.Stressful, overworked and not respected.They expected far too much for the amount of money that staff are paid.Marketed as a fun, happy place but staff treated awfully and most left with stress.

Absolutely terrible

ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING COMPANY do not work for them!! They treat you so badly , the managers are rude and expect you to do everything while they drink coffee and talk on the phone all day. They always find something wrong with what youve done no matter how hard you work

Very slow

The other staff and manager at my store were lovely. However there are so few customers that the shifts really drag. Also you will be expected to work hours which you stated at interview you could not do, such as closing the store at 8.30 when childcare is a problem
