Poor management
Sales Assistant (Former Employee) - Dublin - 22 January 2020
Indeed featured review
The most useful review selected by IndeedThe company do not help to progress into more senior roles. Full of false promises. Operate on ridiculous trial runs. Sometimes you could be waiting years for a promotion despite hard work and effort.

Enjoyed working here part time to get through college. Staff were all friendly and everyone helped each other. Pay was minimum but it was only as a side job while in college

Toxic and excluding workplace
Sales Assistant (Former Employee) - Swords, County Dublin - 30 March 2022
I worked in the Swords branch and it was a toxic environment. The current store manager looks down on everyone and makes snide remarks to staff. They make you feel incapable of doing your job. The long shifts prevent you from having any work life balance as they open until 9pm nearly every day of the week. It was the worst retail store I have ever worked in.

Stressful
Sales Assistant (Former Employee) - Sligo, County Sligo - 28 February 2022
If only working there part time then it's fine, not much is expected even though it should be. Staff there for a while expected then to pick up any slack. Anonymous reviews of management are not Anonymous and brought up in front of people. Bad practice.
Pros
Christmas bonus
Cons
Management

Poor Management and HR
Shop Assistant (Former Employee) - Dundalk, County Louth - 24 August 2021
Worked there for 3 years with promises of advancement within the shop/company and nothing to show for it. Poor communication throughout and MAJOR lack of management, and when there was some she was a genuine bully. No respect of staff from not only management but Head Office rules which was made more apparent with Covid. I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone. Just becomes more toxic the longer your there and takes a major toll on mental health!
Pros
Nothing
Cons
Long Hours, poor management, no respect, no job advancement

Great Management
Sales Assistant (Current Employee) - Dublin - 28 April 2021
Great company for promoting from within the company for more senior roles. Lots of training available for all colleagues who would like to progress (most members of the management would be colleagues who started as floor staff). Great work environment and we're definitely not FORCED to stop shop lifters but we do try and stop them if we can. Great place to work all round, fair hours, fair work and fair pay. I am currently working in homestore and have been for many years like most of us there 😁
Pros
Staff training available to all throughout the year
Cons
Can be long days but not that aften

Poor management
Sales Assistant (Former Employee) - Fonthill Retail Park, County Dublin - 21 April 2021
Poor management who constantly insist there right even when their not, unfair balance of work as you could be cleaning 6 sections while the other person who's good friends with the manager stands and chats. Slowly became a more toxic Enviroment throughout the number of years I worked there. Your forced to stop shop lifters even though its not in your contract, barely able to give contracted hours and sometimes don't. Can cut hours after routine with no notice to force you put of the company. Avoid homestore and more at all costs, you'll either be forced to stand on the door in the freezing cold or be made fit 6 hours work in to four
Pros
Absolutely nothing
Cons
Long hours, unfair management and wage, too much workload and no reasoning with managers
