Asda job reviews

The pay for being 16 £9.36 is very good

Working 6am and didn’t get the best training at first

some of the colleagues

managers are rude

Amazing work colleagues

Lack of equipment

When I get to do the job I trained for as checkout operative

Standing for 7 + hours handing masks out

Other colleagues

Customers threatening and abusive behaviour

some managers are nice

they expect a lot out of you

You aren't actually in the shop so there's no management moaning at you until you get back

Colleagues.

Poor Management and short staffed.

My colleagues

Rude customers and not enough people in to get the job done as well as we would like

Great team and management who understands that you sometimes can not do absolutely everything in one shift.

Sometimes the delivery backstock is very heavy and you dont always manage to work through everything

The people

The pay and management

great when it goes right

management

Closed so no customers

Unrealistic expectations by management

Good team, freedom on the road.

Physically demanding, Bad pay, upper management have zero understanding about how isolated drivers can feel from the rest of the store teams but expect them to come in and fold towels for 7 hours on Xmas eve instead of just offering it ad a day off.

Only the colleagues .

Managers and section leader don't listen.

It pays well for what it is.

Overtime is often hard to get due to the store being overspent on wages. Some managers are great some have no social skills at all. Lots of long term colleagues have left, barely any replaced and those that have been replaced haven’t been given proper training. Severely understaffed, doing a workload alone that should be for at least 2-3 people.

Decent pay & benefits.
Lots of friendly colleagues.
Majority of customers are pleasant to interact with.

Asda is a poorly ran & underfunded company.
Bad management.
Unrealistic expectations.
Stressful environment.
Unpaid breaks even though we rarely get to take our full breaks.

People
Money
Changes every day

Managers don’t care
Customers can be rude

Some of the staff I work with are great
Plenty of overtime in certain months
Always doing something so busy

Some of the colleagues and managers are bullies
Not payed enough to deal with what you encounter

The people you work with

The staff discount, finishing early

Keep expecting more and more. They make us put food back that has been rejected by customers. Sometimes this has been out of the chiller for too long or had stuff spilt over it and we just have to wipe it and put it back on the shelf. Having to deal with rotten food when sorting waste that piles up for weeks.

The people I work with. All so welcoming and kind. The pay is good.

I don’t think there are any bad things about it.

The people

The store managers, and managers in general don’t care one bit about you

Flexibility

Some people not caring

Team work

Not paid enough pèr hour as fuel prices $ cost of living has gone through the roof

The people I work with

Short staffed, no appreciation and because I work in an Asda living we’re farmed out to other stores during lockdown travel costs weren’t covered and we were treated very poorly during these times by staff and customers. My mental health has suffered because of this

The people I work with

Always short staffed, staff not trained properly, the workload

people i work with

people being rude and also the stress

Staff are amazing
Great pay
Covid pay
You work the same days and times every week.

Management can be difficult only because of stresses placed on them.
Busy times, especially at Christmas can get very stressful.

Pay and other colleagues. Quite a casual system

Management. Rude costumers. Unproffesionalism

the people you make good friends

how difficult and tiring it can be

Out on the road alone,can work at your own pace within reason..as long as the job is done little Interaction from management...never same day twice always meeting new people travelling to new areas etc

As stated above your alone all day..expected to carry heavy weight up multiple stairs/steps offen work through your breaks or end up sitting around waiting for hours...flat rate of pay regardless of hours/days worked..working in all weather's

People I work with

Over worked
Under paid
Under appreciated
Corrupt management
Disrespect off higher in charge
working a 2/3 person job by yourself

The pay

The hours and the way you are treated by management

The people

Hours and shift patterns
Unrealistic expectations

Best things is pay especially if you’re young.

Just left alone without training

My hours

The stress and worries

It’s a really simple job and the pay is good, the managers are really nice and supportive

Online pickers are usually finished before your scheduled to finish work, so you have to either go around the shop floor stocking shelves or go home early if you want to.

The customers are what make my job the best!

The staff are all friendly

Argumentative customers

The opportunities I am given
My manager

10% discount, some nice staff/customers, available overtime

Lack of proper training, some rude staff/customers, lack of health and safety on the shop floor

Time goes quite quickly as you are always busy

Customers are quite rude, stressful on busy days, some managers are bullies

Staff discount

Nothing managers work you to the bone expect you to be able to work 24/7 and not have any sick days and never enough equipment to complete a job correctly

Colleague discount
Choice to do overtime

Poor recognition
Unpaid breaks

Stress, managers don’t care about colleagues, everything has to be ‘perfect’ if we have a visit from regional managers etc. so they don’t see how it really is, people leave & don’t get replaced so you’re doing 5 peoples jobs, you only get promoted if your face fits not if you’re good at your job.

My workmates

The mad hours

SOME of the staff (I.e new friends)

The rest of the staff and mainly the managers
