Working with people and I like the staff

Last minute shift changes and not asked if I want overtime. Its expected of us and we get grief if we say we don't want it.

My colleagues

Being forced to work on my own I feel vulnerable when customers are rude to me for no good reason.

Short shifts

No seat and bad management, unprofessional

The direct team I work with are lovely, really supportive and friendly.

No sick pay, or compassionate leave, no communication with staff, lack of respect or understanding for staff, high staff turnover, the uniform also fits poorly. No air conditioning

The other staff like other cashiers and shop floor staff

The managers , the pay

The people I work with, so the other cashiers and the shop floor staff

The pay, the managers, the stress

Its 10 minutes away.

Everything. Treat you like dirt. No pride.

Coworkers on the floor are generally friendly

Meeting customers

to much to do in time allocated

The staff are lovely and I enjoy being customer service trained

Some people are worked too hard for the pay, management do not always appreciate their staff enough

Some of the other team members

Camaraderie with colleagues

Awful pay. Dealing with the public. Zero job satisfaction.

Working with a team that on a whole understand each other and respect each other.

Some management struggle to see things from other management and colleagues point of view.

Easy job , great people to work wuth

Low pay , long hours, lack of recognition, people get treated differently, lot of stress

Since a large portion of our staff (sales assistants) are students, managers are pretty understanding when you need to take time off for study.
We have a group chat in which people can ask for shift swaps/covers and people normally respond fairly quickly.

Despite being a very busy store, there are only 6 tills which all require a member of staff to use (rather than self-service) which means that during peak times (especially the weekend) the queues are often the whole way down the store. This also means that customers get bored of waiting and leave their full trolleys and baskets in the aisles.
Only certain staff are authorised to perform refunds/returns and so to do so you need to call for a supervisor which can sometimes take a while.

helping customers

sometimes people can be rude

Friendly team, positive atmosphere, good experience for customer service, management adjust hours to fit my uni schedule

High number of pallets, high expectations for a smaller team of staff

Team efforts and the friendly staff

Tough customers and days that are understaffed

Colleagues

Wages are poor not even the living wage despite huge profits

Making friends and how nice staff are

Management and how they test people who are younger than them and don’t let you go on break unless it’s at start of shift

Bullying late nights and no control over the amount of people that are allowed in the shop

Poor management. Blatantly no health and safety training given. No new starter induction. No advice given but management are quick to pull you up on your short comings, which is pretty hilarious considering as a newbie you haven't really got a clue as to what is exected of you.

The people

The pay and lack of staff

Being part of a team

My colleagues.

Late shifts not shared out equally, no communication from management to staff. No respect or appreciation from management to staff.

Team mentality and how everyone gets on

Good colleagues. They try to arrange our shifts to suit us where they can.

We're treated like automatons. It often feels as if the company does not care about it's staff.

Great colleagues

Bad pay, not great in terms of COVID regulations

Friendly staff great customer base

No respect

some lovely helpful staff, regular hours and days staff discount

my fellow workers
