Cash Converters Employer Reviews

Typical day at work involves greeting customers, selling items, buying merchandise, negotiating prices, and daily store maintenance. This workplace allowed me to gain important customer service skills such as dealing with a wide variety of people and problems. The hardest part of the job is negotiation and turning people down for their items they wish – more... to sell. The most enjoyable part of the job is working with co-workers and discovering new types of merchandise and people everyday. – less

In a typical day at work I would research product information and pricing interact with customer in both a buying and selling role, what I learned was how to explain to people the value in something in both negotiating buying and selling prices. Management is supportive and there is opportunity for advancement.

Long hours, 12 to 14 hour days. Paid for 8 hours. Constant insults from upper management right down to discrimination.

Monday the both the owners will give report on last weeks business and ask us the employees on how to improve service. All the staff worked together and achieved maximum business and gained experience. Stock take management was very important because the manager will recheck to see if there are any problems. My co-workers helped me with all the stocks – more... and locations of products. Enjoyable part was that I have gained new experience every day and looked forward to the next day – less

had great time in cash converters,but wages is not that good and no security for staff,

A fun and happy place to work on the whole, fabulous people to work with and a nice airy office. If it wasn't for the fact that I won't be able to commute much longer I wouldn't think about leaving. A caring company who take time to listen and reward hard work well, with regular bonus and incentive packages and excellent Christmas outings.

I was on work experience. It was fun to work in a shop.
It was an eight hour shift. I have learned how to co-operate with other people, such as customers and co-workers.
The managers at the shop are nice.
Finding things on the first day.
Helping customers is what I enjoyed the most.

All the co-workers on the shop floor are more than pleasant to be around, they're a friendly and fun team to work along side who are more than willing to help solve any issues that arise.

The management team however tend to over react to some issues that may arise and often set unrealistic targets for the week/month.

The hardest parts of the job are – more... both when the shop is overly busy, as you must be constantly aware of who is where and where your services can be used the best, and when there are no customers around as the day can then become very dull and may drag on if you have few other jobs to complete. – less

A typical day at work for me is spent dealing with customers, tidying and sorting through stock. Everyday is a school day as i like to say so i enjoy learning new things daily.

Im being honest when i say that it isnt the most pleasant establisments. At times, the management treat staff with no respect and do not appreciate the amount of work thats – more... is carried out. The way in which we have been spoken to in the past is dreadful. However, other times everything is great. I realise people can have "off days" but when you are in a higher position the i believe that professionalism is key and these people should lead by example.

I really enjoy the people i work with. As such an out going people person i can get on with anybody. Working beside good people makes for a good working environment and ultimately making for a good day, everyday.

The job itself is relatively straightforward. You can come across challenges with customer returns, complaints etc. But the most enjoyable part for me is doing as much work as possible and feeling a sense of satisfaction when my tasks are complete. – less
