Very fast paced environment for those able to work fast for 5-6 hours a day standing up. Pay is very unfavourable for young men under 21. My experience at Woolworths was not very good. We always had less team members on shift so it made it so stressful on our body to finish stock. Some assistant managers are very stressful and inconsiderate yelling at employees. Department managers are also the same. They expect us to finish everything with minimal employees on shift while they lurk around the store and chill and talk to other people. They do nothing the whole night then get angry at us for not finishing. Really disappointed. They also sometime have their favourites and make them do less work compared to others. I was finishing off 2 aisles of stock as I was forced to while his favourites were talking with him the whole night while not even being able to finish their own stock and eventually getting help from others yet the manager still doesn’t get angry. If you ever work at Woolworths I recommend either to work Grocery (Day shift stocking) or Fresh Foods and Fruits Department. Way more chill staff that actually work.

Pros

Once in a while pizza lunch. 2-3 times a year

Cons

Inconsiderate nightfill management

Same role

Deliberately short staffed to raise profits

Under staffed, under paid and expected to do the work of three people, all so managers get their end of year bonuses. Carton rates are going to seriously injure someone one day.
