Friendly work environment
Sales Associate (Current Employee), Waterloo, ON – March 20, 2013
Pros: friendly work environment
Cons: management
A typical day at work at Dollarama would include filling the product in my designated aisle as well as counting stock. There is never a shortage of things to do during the day at Dollarama and I'm always busy. I like the fast paced environment and in general all staff gets along which is a big positive to working there. The one negative I have is the – more... management and how the management at my store feels the store should be run. The hardest part of this job is dealing with upset or angry customers but the most enjoyable is that I get to meet different people everyday and be around coworkers that I like working with. – less

I enjoyed my day to day working enviroment relating to the customers and providing the kind of professional, courteous, and personal service
Cashier (Current Employee), London, ON – March 6, 2013
Pros: nothing
Cons: sometimes long hours
My first and most important part of my job was to serve our customers needs and requirements in a professional and courteous way. I have learned over the years that not all customers are the same so therefore you have to be empathetic,personal and understanding. I really enjoy working in a friendly and co-operative environment with my co-workers as – more... part of a Team whose goal is Customer Satisfaction. The most enjoyable part of the job is being recognized by management for the way I have served our customers by their comments about the kind of service I have provided. The hardest part of the job was dealing with customers complaints and trying negotiate a solution that was satisfactory to both the customer and my employer – less

A typical day was challenging, I learnt how to manage a store and how to make it functional. the management were very supportive ,but wanted tight deadlines to be made. the hardest part of the job was making the store functional in a short deadline. I enjoyed when I met the deadline ahead of time.

i greatly enjoyed working there
Customer Service Associate (Former Employee), Quispamsis, NB – February 7, 2013
MY job allowed me to gain experience in many areas, cash, stocking shelves, inventory control, internal security as well as customer service and freight handling.
The people were friendly and management was always playing a hands on role.
A great place to work.
I only left the position as we moved.

Dollarama
cashier, dealt (Former Employee), Grande Prairie, AB – February 6, 2013
Pros: great hours
Cons: one coworker was difficult to work with.
I enjoyed it immensely. The people and staff were great to work with. I liked the younger staff as well as those who were my age, since I had learned as much from them as others had learned some skills from me. Everything was so simple to do there. The hardest thing I've learned to do there was stock shelves and coolers, but that became easier as I – more... went along. I had also met a great deal of friendly customers. It was mostly busy, but even the busiest days was a working progress. I got along quite well with most of my coworkers, including the management staff. I had learned to sign in and out (even though I was forgetful about it sometimes--not a good thing), and I had learned to be very open with customers. The hardest part of the job was stocking cookers, as I mentioned, and I enjoyed meeting new people, staff and customers alike. I truly miss working there. – less
