Terrible place to work
Fresh Food Assistant (Former Employee) - Christchurch, Canterbury - 4 March 2022
Working the the deli was like being back in high school. Favouritism, no positive reinforcement and management that breaks conduct. I worked there for a year I was shocked by the rudeness of the deli management and the levels of wastage produced everyday. We had the option to donate left over food on our scanners not once was it used. Not even for the fresh made sandwiches that got thrown out every night, because no one wanted to pay full price for them after they stopped reducing them. Because they were losing money, Countdown really doesn’t care about its employees.
Pros
Nothing
Cons
Bad Management, Ridiculous workloads and little to no benefits other than 5% off shopping

Causal Fresh Foods Assistant (Former Employee) - Blockhouse Bay, Auckland - 25 October 2020
Lovely staff easy to talk to with everyone. Morning shift not as busy but some days could be. Self packing check the expire dates and check if nothing is broken.
Pros
Nothing free
Cons
Easy hours

FRESH FOODS ASSISTANT (Former Employee) - Warkworth, Auckland - 9 February 2020
Good staff to work with, friendly and helpful. Fairly unorganized company overall, stressful place to work if you like structure and routine. Hours can change from week to week.
