Can't keep staff, so everyone else is overworked

Sales (Former Employee) - Perth WA - 14 April 2021

Working '38' hours is a myth. There is an expectation to work 1.5hrs overtime each day, even if not exactly spoken about; this would be due to being understaffed. The company as a whole do not work together nicely. When there are certain departments for each division of Stratco and its products, none of them seem to help each other, leaving unresolved issues and blaming of problems. Retail stores seem left to fix issues they are not part of, even though the retail staff are meant to be serving customers, there is too much work put on them that is not 'their' job, meaning they are then expected to work unreasonable hours. The whole company needs a massive system overhaul in order for their issues to be resolved, even minor issues seem to be ignored if they don't affect management enough.

Pros

Great Pay, more interesting than most retail work, great discounts

Cons

Long hours, un-cohesive team

Toxic work environment with Toxic management

Trade sales representitive (Former Employee) - Newcastle NSW - 10 August 2020

Stratcos state retail management team and the other "supporting" staff members who offer you assistance never provide you with help. I worked at Stratco for a little over a year and not once did I feel the management would provide assistance. In advance to that, the store I worked at had toxic store manager. This man would only provide assistance if you were doing well in regards to your KPI's and never offer assistance if it meant you would beat him. Small minded people making poor business decisions in the retail sector. Further to this, excellence was never once commended. If you achieved your targets and exceeded by a long way, you were never congratulated.Poor incentive structure depending on what side of the business you are on. For me, I was never made aware that there was an incentive on offer until I randomly received one. But in saying that, the incentive structure seemed to change month to month and would never be the same.
