Good team, not good management

All good workers, lots of support and opportunities for growth. I learned a lot about the industry but did not feel very much guidance from my management.

Not great

Cashier (Current Employee) - Ontario - 8 November 2023

Minimum wage with no raises, a lot of work for one person. Management is cliquey and usually hires personal family and friends. Stores are short staff and a lot of customer are not happy with policies.

Nice people, overall good experience

Cashier (Former Employee) - Richmond, BC - 5 November 2023

Colleagues were nice and friendly, customers were fun to talk with sometimes. Management was good too. The pay is just not enough for me to go all out in this position.

Just need a job

Cashier (Former Employee) - Cowansville, QC - 2 November 2023

It’s ok to work here, better off somewhere else with potential opportunities for growth. It’s not easy moving up. Stagnant job. Flexible hours, easy job, low stress

I liked working there didn't get many shifts though, friendly people, good environment, you get a great discount of up to 30% off and points days where you can get your 30% and 20xs the points

Good for part time

Cashier (Current Employee) - Hamilton, ON - 30 October 2023

worked for here for three years. Management techniques can vary but for the most part this job is good for a part time roll. Wouldn’t suggest taking supervising positions as they have much more responsibilities for a dollar more of pay

Very very shallow environment

Cashier (Former Employee) - Toronto, ON - 30 October 2023

This is not a good first job at all out of high school. Hours were terrible, was required to do closing shift even though I'm part training. Pay is not good. Job is only applicable if you are doing post secondary with financial aid ans scholarships. If not, I highly do not recommend retail after high school. Take a gap year or 2, look for something else, hopefully a full time work with little experience and something that is simple. Good luck out there my people 👍

Nice place

Cashier (Current Employee) - Scarborough, ON - 24 October 2023

My store specially is great for me to work at. The management has favoritisms and it can be hard to get shifts. But if you are nice to them, they are nice to you too

Pretty chill, depends on managment

Cashier (Former Employee) - Toronto, ON - 23 October 2023

My location was quite small so I wasn't often overwhelmed with a long line of customers, the job isn't too demanding apart from the standing. Depends on managment

Productive workplace

Cashier (Former Employee) - Ontario - 12 October 2023

There are so many things to learn but if you succeed the owner genuinely cares about your career succession. Teammates were always helpful and management was great at hearing concerns.

Good entry level job
