This by far is one of the greatest companies I have ever worked for. The owner and the manager are two of the most amazing people I have ever had the privilege to work for. I would recommend this place of employment to anyone.

I started off working floor and then was switched to night shift. After my physical and mental health were wearing on me after 2 years, I decided I had to get out of it. After asking my manager to be moved, he either danced around it or offered me positions that neither he or I knew I could take. In the end, I had to quit due to the horrible atmosphere – more... and the night shifts hours. – less

GREAT EXPERIENCE LEARNED ALOT OF MANAGEMENT SKILLS AND CUSTOMER SERVICE

to work at shoppers are tired because you are part-time worker, therefor you get no chance to be not working all the midnight ship and the next day will have to be up at 6 to start working again till afternoon

I really enjoyed working with all of my co-workers but I had also worked with them for over 10 years. We were like a family unit and we worked well together. Everyone was always very helpful in all aspects of the job always there for each other. A typical day always started off and running, we are a very busy store, there was no down time. It was always – more... challenging and everyday was different. I enjoyed that aspect of the job. I liked the involvement of dealing with the clientele and the other healthcare professionals. Unfortunately if it was not for my associate, I would still be under your employment. The job became intolerable for me to stay. I also would have liked to be able to have had an opportunity to have my concerns addressed at the time by your company, as I know my former colleagues would have liked to as well. Thank you for the opportunity and would like you to know what a privilege it was for me to have worked with a great group of professionals. – less

Supervising. Cash float counting. Lottery Tickets, Bus tickets maintenance. Learned how to stalk. Receiving inventory. Cashier. Being punctual.

My favourite days at Shoppers were the insane busy ones! I love talking with customers & helping them out, and I always tried my best. The staff was excellent, and always willing to help out. The hardest part was the slower days, when you have to find things to clean or restock shelves. Most enjoyable was returning customers who truly appreciated you!

I was a merchandiser and picked up all duties and procedures quickly. Stocked shelves, helped customers and very much enjoyed my work day there on the weekends.

Worked well with all coworkers and management team, was a reliable worker and always on time.

A typical day at work would include either a morning shift, 8-4:30,
or a night shift, 1:30-10.
I would arrive at work and strive for my first sale of the day.
Co-workers and I get along great, and we feed off of eachother for sales.
Management does their job and Co-workers are friends.

Was a very good place to work treated staff excellent. Had a very good rewards program. Customers were awesome.
