Done it for the one in Dordon for 3 and half years, 2 years in Freezer and 1.5 in picking in Ambient.It is ok if you're looking to start quick a new job but they've always had one of the lowest payment in retail and I can honestly say that job promotions don't come easy, the canteen is ok, food is afordable compared with other places I've worked for, 2 breaks a day but the worst I can say about is waking up at 03:30 in the morning because you're shift as a picker starts at 04:30, other than this is not as bad as some people wants to portrait it as.

the juxtaposition of upbeat corporate music and sad warehouse workers will always be hilarious to me

[roaming.spectre.]

They have blatantly got office staff to pose as warehouse workers 😅

[jaydonwatson]

slave labour, the pay doesn't even add up to the work you have to do, the targets you need to hit etc...

[chevchillios]

Work place tolerance doesn’t exist when it comes to profits

[Mrbeerus]

Salary paid here working fulltime is dreadful!! Other companies pay alot better for similar type of work..

[DarksideoftheMoon]

Ahhh I remember the days of Warehouse work..where the managers are complete tossers, forced overtime, wrapping shit, dragging shit, loading shit and everyone but that one annoying strange person hates their job.

Guys anyone looking to work here don’t listen to the lazy guys in the comments I’m 18, currently doing freezer picking, the pay good, they don’t care for experience or what you do (listen to your music) just get the job done. These people don’t like moving about and wanna jump straight into peaceful life without doing any work
Plus it’s extremely easy to do my 8 year old cousin could do it (despatch and dekit specifically)
-wouldn’t recommend doing dekit (super easy but incredibly boring)

*never mind just got fired for lateness, all this talk just to get unemployment lol*

By far the worst job I’ve ever had. You are just another number, not even afforded time to use the toilet. If you like half you 15 minute break consisting of having to walk 4 flights to the break room then straight back up you will love it

[mamrae]

4 months working nights avoid dont care about staff money no good if you want to mess your body parts go for it😂

[politicallyincorrect]

[pauloyeghe]
