What are retail and sales assistants saying about pay at Barclays?
-
Best thing
The pay is good for what we do. The staff are friendly, the management are transparent around staffing, the direction the bank are moving in, they’re open and honest about everything that’s going on.
Worst thing
Abusive customers… although few and far between. Other colleagues under-perfoming.

Best thing
6 months full sick pay
Death in service benefit
PensionWorst thing
Always short staffed
Expected to do other people's work when they don't complete it
Micromanage
Treated like a kid at school
Targets , they call them aspirations now instead of targets 🤣Barclays Customer advisor, September 2021

Best thing
Security - fraud isn’t reducing any time soon
Worst thing
The shifts, the amount of work, the changes without proper information, the pay, the micro management

Best thing
The flexibility that is available now is much better for those who are happy to move to the new hybrid role.
Worst thing
Taking telephony calls even though I had not signed up to the hybrid role. Low pay considering what is expected of the role. Hard to progress for part time employees.
