Poor management
Full -time Sales assistant (Former Employee) – Sydney NSW – 23 March 2019
My job there (in one of the stores) was only for a short time due to the below reasons:
Poor management. No proper training.
Too much expectation as soon as I started.
Unfair treatment and management was picking on every little thing instead of appreciating my hard work. I couldn't even get a drink even when I was entitled to take my 10 min break.Terrible place. I felt so unhappy.They tried to cover up the terrible attitude by picking on tiny things while I was still learning.
Often had to stay back without pay but there was no appreciation.
Resigned because of the stress I had suffered.

Store Manager at Portmans (Former Employee) – Sydney NSW – 2 August 2018
No work/life balance. Will work you to the bone and provide no support. Better paying jobs out there with support and less stress. They do not live up to their own "people culture"
Pros
none
Cons
everything
Poor leadership
Store Manager (Former Employee) – Adelaide SA – 29 July 2018
I did enjoy my time working for the just group but purely through having a great team and store .
Senior leadership are lazy and are of no support .
Coming from a previous business pooched and promised I was left disappointed.
Training is great but culture is poor

Good salary, terrible culture
Head Office Staff (Former Employee) – Melbourne, Australia – 5 June 2017
Unfortunately, the culture imposed from the top-down was aggressively skewed towards profits-at-any-cost. Senior management were known in the industry for high-profile court cases regarding disputes with previous and current staff, which promoted mistrust amongst other staff.
There was little-to-no job satisfaction, given the highly repetitive and intense workload, and so staff turn-over was high.
The hardest part of the job were the countless late finishes, due to poor management and a disregard for the time necessary to implement the changes requested.
The most enjoyable part of the job was working alongside an excellent team, compiled by the direct team managers.
