Most of the time I had to help my colleagues cause noone else was around.

lon:plnd https://www.indeed.com/cmp/poundland/reviews Dec 12th, 2020 12:00AM Open Open Open Poundland Warehouse Operative 3 sisters, Bryn Wigan GBR Dont bother unless you from EU. Place is an absolute joke, if you need cash its a job for now yes. But keep your eyes open for a more positive environment too work in and get your cash. I turned up on interview day and was rushed through onto a llop truck for refresher and straight into work. 12 hr shifts on minimum wage on 1 break 45 mins half way through. There's plenty other places even if you desperate. Resigned 1st December still no p45 or holiday pay recieved. Few decent staff. Thats it!!!

lon:plnd https://www.indeed.com/cmp/poundland/reviews Dec 2nd, 2020 12:00AM Open Open Open Poundland Sales Assistant Wellingborough, Northamptonshire GBR Really bad company wouldn’t return Bad company that uses their exploits carefully. Unfortunately the employees at the bottom are the ones treated the worst. They expect miracles and when you raise issues regarding workload and workplace bullying, you get fobbed off with excuses to why they cannot deal with the issues raised. If you just happen to be friends with management.. you can basically get away with murder! Avoid unless you’re a cliché and like a groundhog workplace with bullying and bad pay.

lon:plnd https://www.indeed.com/cmp/poundland/reviews Nov 21st, 2020 12:00AM Open Open Open Poundland Picker Harlow GBR Job needs work I came pretty close to enjoying working at poundland but they make it difficult. The pick rate is very unrealistic especially considering how low you are paid. Also forced to listen to the radio which plays the same chart songs over and over which turns into a form of torture and no earphones are allowed. Broken cages constantly put back in cage area which becomes incredibly frustrating. Some of the managers were very friendly and helpful people who seemed to care about their staff while others were rude and quite clearly on a power trip. Other employees a real mix of lovely friendly people and blatantly rude people. Overall I didn't hate the job however after being asked to train a new recruit that ran my foot over I was asked to take a drugs test even though accident wasn't my fault. This led to me having to leave the job which was a great shame. If you like an occasional spliff at the weekend avoid any accident as much as possible!
