What people are saying about sick pay at WHSmith
-
Best thing
Colleagues are lovely
It's easy to learn on the job (since you don't get trained you have to pick it up yourself)Worst thing
no training
no sick pay
you are expected to know rules, policies and skills you are not taught
managers only do things to benefit sales and other managers or team leaders, sales assistants concerns are ignored
constantly understaffed, sometimes left in a store alone all day even when it needs atleast 3 staff members
breaks are unpaid
you never get a thank you or a well done even if you work above and beyond for them
rotas are not available until on the day or around 8pm ghe night before, and you can pnly see it if you are already at work.WHSmith Sales assistant, March 2024

The public shouting at you because you're short staffed and there are queues
Being expected to work without breaks and without supportWHSmith Operations manager, March 2023
