    Melbourne VIC 30002 to 3 years in the role, current employee
    Fun, enjoyable, could be paid abit better for what u actually do.
    The good thingsChilled, always something to do, never stand around bored, great communication with head office/ managers. Everyone has always been kind.
    The challengesI work in a small store and the over load of delivery's is insane! The pay could be better for the amount of unboxing / lifting / and constant sale changes /vm updates. To much sale signage, it can get very awkward when customers come in saying use are always on sale use are always closing?

    A divisive culture
    The good thingsthe discounts that you get are good and there are some nice people who work there. Interacting with customers and putting away stock is the most enjoyable part
    The challengesi found issues with being micromanaged and the perpetrator having a conflicting personality with me; so naturally they didn't understand my thought process which ultimately led to being scolded more than I would've liked. The vm also constantly changes so it is difficult to direct customers to areas for the item that they have desired. I also believed that at times, the employees voices needed to be heard because we had the items in stock we just didn't see fit to display it despite it being very popular and heavily asked for.

    Do not listen to the feedback of their staff.
    The good thingsCoworkers are great, hours and the music.
    The challengesHuge amount of VM change overs, ridiculously large stock deliveries and terrible communication from head office management. They do not pay you to start early and and stay late to close the store, but expect you to arrive 15 min before your shift starts and not begin closing procedures before end of business hours.
