      Primark reviews

      easy job terrible opportunities

      Retail assistant
      Former employee
      Canterbury, England
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      quick and easy hiring process, adequate training resources. flexible working hours and good structure for young employees.

      Cons

      management team are very subjective about promotions, particularly as they don't reward merit. poor progression as a result and adopts the 'face fitting' approach. toxic environment insofar that the store has created an environment where there is no reward for good work and no punishment for bad behaviour.

      Pros

      - Interview process was easy and was offered job on the spot - Team (weekend staff) were lovely to work with, strong team dynamic - 1 hour lunch, 30 minutes break if you do full-day shift, with half day getting 30 minutes break

      Cons

      - Working near the entrance, they lacked heating so my department was shivering most of the time - Lacked cooling system so it was uncomfortable working in hotter seasons - Lacking in staff in all departments, clothes easily piled up on the staff rail, especially when fitting-rooms department did their rounds - Physically draining - Customers lack any sort of respect and kindness
