great place to work
Customer Assistant (Former Employee) - Dublin, County Dublin - 16 May 2022
Indeed featured review
The most useful review selected by IndeedAn enjoyable place to work, can be fast paced depending on the time of year. The job consists of working in the stockroom where you put away deliveries, pick orders etc and also being on the shop floor to help customers with their needs.

Very accommodating for students, great staff atmosphere. The pay is very good and increases each year you work there, and bonuses every Christmas, and double pay each bank holiday.

Great place to work
Customer Service Advisor (Former Employee) - Ireland - 3 January 2022
Very good place to work, gained a lot of experience about stock control and warehouse procedures, processing transactions and customer behaviour and how to provide good customer service, really enjoyed working here
Pros
Very helpful and friendly staff, flexibility in working hours and good level of pay
Cons
Can be very quiet alot of the time and therefore boring, constant push on sales and stock targets such as insurance at tills, deliveries can be very inconsistent, massive one day and very small the next

Grand place to work for
Sales Assistant (Former Employee) - Sligo Town, County Sligo - 21 December 2021
Okay to work for only thing is only part time and not many hours available. Would like to see more full time contracts available, staff discount is a plus. Can be quiet at times only really busy at Christmas

I was fun driving to the country
I enjoyed working with them . Their payment was good, you can also have over time and also good money. I was driving truck doing home delivery. I don't mind working there. I can do any delivery just read to start.

Productive and Fun-Working place
Sales Assistant (Former Employee) - Clonmel, County Tipperary - 26 February 2021
Although I was only a seasonal worker and worked for 3 months it was the safest, most controlled and friendly environment I have ever worked in. Everyone is really supportive of one another and always has time to show you certain things if you cannot personally remember them. Everyone in Argos especially the management have been nothing but good from the time I was in there. I would highly recommend this job to anyone looking to ease themselves into the retail life. Albeit a pressuring stressful job, you have plenty of people around you to support and lend a hand if you’re overwhelmed.
Pros
Safe, kind working environment
Cons
Nothing.

Enjoyed my time there as a temp. Management and coworkers were absolutely lovely can’t say a bad word about any of them. Lots of training given to ensure we’re the best we can be.

Competitive and reward environment
Stockroom Assistant (Former Employee) - Mahon Cork - 12 May 2020
A typical shift for me varied in length between four and six hours. There was a culture of honestly and hard work. Overall, I found it to be a positive working environment.

Great place to work
Sales Assistant (Current Employee) - Castlebar, County Mayo - 13 February 2020
This is a great place to work. The rate of pay is always above minimum and it continues to grow.
The work itself varies from busy to slow paced and challenging to very easy to do. Once you understand the processes no job is too hard and the training is of a high standard.
The only issue is that the contract means hours are highly variable.

Good job
Stockroom Assistant (Former Employee) - Cavan - 8 February 2020
Worked in argos for 5 years loads of opportunities to up skill. Decent pay but unsocialable working hours but that's retail. Mostly part time positions available.

ok
Customer service advisor (Former Employee) - Dublin - 20 January 2020
not a bad place to work, staff are friendly enough.
money is poor and living wage is poor
again for kids while studying ,
if want to gain experience its a good place, but to feed your family you'll starve

Loved it
Customer service advisor (Former Employee) - Blanchardstown, County Dublin - 9 January 2020
It was a great place to work at.
There are days where there wouldn’t be a lot of people in to buy things so you have to keep yourself busy. And then there will be days that it will be so busy that time will fly, I was a Christmas staff so I was able to see the peak days and then after Christmas I was also able to see how their regular days are like. Overall I really enjoyed my job and the staff where the friendly and so helpful. It made it coming to work really great

No opportunity, senior management untrustworthy.
Stock management (Former Employee) - Tullamore, County Offaly - 6 October 2019
Many years loyal service with little to no reward, only chance of advancing is if you are willing to betray your colleagues and become a "yes man/woman"

Overall positive. Manager had no people skills
Customer Advisor (Former Employee) - Athlone, County Westmeath - 9 September 2019
Overall my experience of working in argos was a positive experience. The only draw back at the time was the manager she was a bully to say the least. She did not have the ability or skills to deal with customers or staff. I would rate the company 6 out of 10

straight forward but very cheap
Sales Assistant (Former Employee) - Limerick - 15 April 2019
argos is a nice shop to work in as it is very straight forward my only disappointment is the pay and how it is run not giving employees sufficient time on break and do not look after employees very well due to keeping cost down.
