Pros

Not much … Discount card, double discount randomly throughout the year …

Cons

Extremely poor management of business, zero training on anything, if they do train you they just show a “video” to cover themselves… management swear & shout at employees all the time, bullying toxic work environment, little to no thanks at all for hard work, section leaders stand clapping hands shouting (and swearing) at colleagues to work faster whilst doing nothing, double standards by managers over everything, shop is always a mess, no handovers, colleagues disciplined over thing’s management do all the time, management have no clue of their own company policy at all, rude obnoxious senior management, management will walk past you like you don’t exist! (Happened daily for 8 years) no help at all, they forge info on feedback to make themselves look good, corruption is rife within this company. If I could give zero stars I would. Ageist company, only interested in employing students or young people they can “mould” to the Asda way (I got told that by a manager) problem is the younger people don’t take the abuse & just walk out after a week or so !!

Pros

There are no Pros about this Asda Store

Cons

The Asda Wallington Store is not a good store to work at because it does not comply with their own policies only when it suits them its all about whether your face fits and not about how hard you work how long you have worked for the company or how good you as a worker the level of bias favouritism racial discrimination and victimisation from certain managers is absolutely shocking! and when you try to address the issue with head office or any member of the Asda executive team they always always always ! take the side of the managers all that I have said is completely true and unfiltered and soley based on from my own personal experience of years! of working at the Asda Wallington Store.

Pros

Most of the job spent remotely, away from idiotic store management.

Cons

Management: In my 5 years in the role I had to endure wage theft, aggressive physical and verbal conduct from my line manager, line manager trying to lie to colleagues about their rights and perks, line manager encouraging drivers to truncate safety checks below the recommended alloted time, line manager perving on female section leaders (patting his lap and calling to them "...come here, little girl..." when he has a child himself), pally managers that block grievances, management blocking police requests for CCTV footage that show 3rd party crimes committed against drivers, management lying about personal injury circumstances, management trying to con staff out of sick pay, management retaliating with fabricated policy breaches after staff report shocking manager behaviour, line manager deliberately not issuing necessary training/health & safety updates for his WHOLE department (financially motivated), management ignoring/covering up vehicle defect reports, company advertising job as specific hours whilst knowing that they cannot honour the contract, unofficial zero hours like contracts, thicko managers that do not know staff rights (especially regarding the right of having a non-GMB rep attend meetings), deliberately not paying overtime hours or double shifts, managers that think ACAS is a union, managers that continue a hate campaign against a driver, despite knowing that a family member is suffering with cancer.
