H.Samuel reviews about "work life balance"

They will use you to step into roles then drop you straight back down. Expect unrealistic targets and work load. Middle management couldn't care less about you and your work/life balance if they tried. Lucky if you get breaks that aren't interrupted as they constantly under staff shops. Ticket and price changes every other week. American owners who don't really seem to get the British high street.

rubbish work life balance people was very quick to call other people

The rota sometimes took a while to come out

Sing asked to do extra shifts a lot No set rota it changed every week Constantly being asked to work weekends Manager was a bully Long periods standing no seat offered Not disability friendly Not bothered about your work life balance

I worked here for nearly 4 years, as a so called step up on a 12 hour contract but they expected me to bend over so many times covering shifts, managing the store when management were away as a full time employee but refused to change my contract. Furthermore they refused to allow me to change my job title even though I was already doing the things for supervisor without any formal training. Work life balance does not exist there were times I had to do 8/9 days straight. Let me not get onto the pay of the job! If your on a 12 hour contract you’ll be earning less than £500 for the month

no option to sit during shift

Many promotion changes and ticket changes

KPIs are not easy to achieve and bonus is based on KPIs

Redundancy central, managers are rudest people, lack of support. Lovely office where no one speaks or is allowed any work life balance. Everyone Judges you. Middle aged women thinking there a cut above the rest but know nothing apart from talking down to you or dirty looks or respect. Very patronising too.
