Team Leader (Former Employee) – Christchurch, Canterbury – 6 May 2019
The company were good to the staff.
I ended up with a lot of paperwork & got frustrated as staff were downsized, the workload on everyone else increased, I got to a point i was worried I would be stopped by a customer who needed help, which meant I would then not get my paperwork completed.

Not a Enjoyable Workplace
Stocktake (Former Employee) – Auckland City, Auckland – 24 March 2019
A typical day at work would include scanning stock individually with an iPod. I did not learn much from this position. I did not like the management team as they were not positive and it seemed like they were just dragging themselves along with the work. The hardest part of the job was putting up with the management team and their negative attitudes. The most enjoyable part of the job was socializing and meeting new people.
Pros
Good Hours
Cons
Management Team
productive and fun work place
Work Experience (Former Employee) – Auckland City, Auckland – 24 March 2019
When you first start working you already feel like you're apart of the team. I have learned retail, customer serious. The management team a really nice and helped me out a lot. Everyone that works there appreciates people of all cultures. The hardest part of my Job was just lifting heavy things off the top of the shelves. The most enjoyable part of the job was getting to know new people.

Retail Assistant (Former Employee) – Feilding, Manawatu-Wanganui – 5 January 2019
The time I spent working at the warehouse I was in High School and management was very good at giving me work that revolved around my study and school/sporting lifestyle. Reviews of staff were done regularly and pay rises were given when deserved. If you showed interest in advancement in the workplace, help was given and you were trained well for the position.
Pros

Cons
Can get very boring
