Platypus Employee Review
Fun workplace, good opportunity to gain experience
Sales Assistant (Current Employee) - Brisbane QLD - 24 February 2023
I thoroughly enjoyed my time working with plat and it was a good opportunity for me to build my confidence and gain experience in operations, leading teams, customer service etc. It can be a great job if you have a good team and supportive store managers. However, there is a high turnover in staff & management, they can be very strict on KPI’s and there can be very few shifts available in slow periods as a casual (they cancel shifts last minute if not enough money is being made throughout a week). Upper management can also be questionable at times. I must say, I have been fortunate to have had some great team members and have made life long friends !

was an okay retail experience. KPIs a bit hard to reach some days but my manager was supportive. hated being pressured into working shifts when they were understaffed

Fun, but not supportive
Sales Assistant (Former Employee) - Brisbane QLD - 12 March 2023
Not enough training. Expected to cover other roles but not supported to meet all targets. Too much non-sales work left to only a few people which is not a fair workload balance
