Primark reviews

Consistently under paid, holidays often not paid. Sick pay not given. You have to call every time you're off but never do you, the employee, ever receive a 'welfare check' 3 managers per department but pass the work on to 'super users' super users blamed if things go wrong but managers quick to take credit for good work. Very much a 'who you know, not what you know' culture. If you're face fits you'll go farther than genuinely better experienced staff. People with 5+ years managerial experience over looked for people who have never managed. Poor and inadequate training. Fundamental lack of care, consideration and respect of its staff. Over time paid monthly but worked out weekly so you, as a worker, have to give up 2 hours every week on basic before earning the over time rate which is only time and a third. Could understand that if the 30 minute break was paid but it isn't!! Company quick to make deductions from salary for lateness but never give it if you stay over.... i.e. If your late back from break you're deducted money regardless if you make the time up. Staff are treated like cattle and punished if off through injury or illness (moved from department to department) Managers should only have 30 minute breaks like colleagues but take 45mins to an hour. If you question it, you're ignored or punished.

Work is for the most part mundane You will generally do the same thing every shift
