I found Tesco Ireland a good company to work for. My job was secure and well paid. I always felt that the managers supported me and helped me progress
I'm wotrking 10 minutes from home it's so handy. If you work hard they look after you and the management are mostly very nice. I enjoy working there. We get different benefits during the year and the union help that.
Pros
Free tea coffee cereals and milk
Cons
Late openings and working weekends
did not want me having any breaks.if a manager took a dislike to you things got real difficult for you ...mangers coming in to work in a bad mood and taken it out on the staff
Pros
co workers great people
Cons
bad management
It was good money and an easy job
Hard to plan things as constant change of roster and asked to stay on extra hours alot
Not much chance of moving up the ladder either
Pros
Good money
Cons
Not the nicest of environment
I worked there almost 17 years ago
I loved my job back then but it looks different to work at now
It’s bigger and loads of new faces but the old team were a credit to work for
Pros
Nice staff and management
Cons
Wages
Working under pressure. Managers at first few weeks or months are nice and then sit on your back. They ask you for favour to stay longer and one week later you don't get your money for overtime. Working at nights you don't get the same benefits as a day shift. No Christmas party, working on new year's eve, holidays promised and than mixed up and so on
I began working at a Tesco that was newly opened and continued for about 4 years there. Although they hired plenty of staff at first, staff began quickly hemorrhaging due to students returning to school and them cutting the role of night staff. However, despite staff numbers dropping, they insisted on everyone else "pulling their weight" more, ending in coworkers working much longer hours than originally anticipated and having to take on multiple roles at once. A coworker of mine was asked to repeatedly work 10+ hours a day, as well as staying overtime as she was the only staff trained in reorganising the layout of the shop. Staff, especially in the morning, are given duties that would realistically warrant a payrise (ie working as the on-duty manager), are told that it is just how it is. I enjoyed my time working there but be aware of being taken advantage of, especially if you are seen to be someone who is eager to please.
Pros
Fair wages, most managers are quite nice and friendly
Cons
Hours, lack of staff
Friendly helpful colleagues. I loved working for them. I would love to again Management are helpful with any query you may have. They are good at promoting and helping you grow in the workplace.
Pros
Hours that suit. Very good to their staff
Cons

Staff are welcoming and very helpful make you feel comfortable starting a new job. Always on the go and always lots of jobs to get done around the store
I started off in the warehouse unpacking clothes and hanging them up in the right category’s eg mens, women’s and children. I took all the plastic off clothes and took paper and cardboard out of shoes and hung them up and recycled the plastic and paper from them. After a few hours got a break then was out on the floor working the changing rooms.
Pros
I got to see most aspects of the shop
Cons
The warehouse was cold
I worked in tesco for sum time which most of it i loved there was a trainee manager which the power went to there head and made my life hard hense i left tesco
Pros

Cons
Sum staff are ovely more have no manners and shouldt be working on the front line
The management are brill in Tesco Cavan. The job I do is enjoyable and I intend to move up the ladder. The hours are good and works around family. The customers are always nice to us that's what you want in a job.
Pros

A experiência de trabalhar no Tesco foi bastante rica para meu currículo, aprendi novas tarefas em uma cultura diferente da minha, novos métodos além de proporcionar o desenvolvimento da língua inglesa para estudantes internacionais.
Pros
Horario flexivel, descontos e jornada te trabalho tranquila.
Cons
Nao ha benefícios como vale transporte ou vale refeição, mas ha lanche no local.
learned a lot working there gained so much experience worked with great people. have worked in many areas in the company and enjoyed my last few years there.
Ruins your life big time. Dump yard company. Management r full of idiots. Raceist issues too much. Treats you like a machine. Never work for this company if you love your life.
Pros
You will feel good for few days
Cons
After few days you r trapped
Fun place to work. I have really enjoyed my time working here so far. I have made a few friends and generally i enjoyed my time working here so far. coming in for my shift at 11 pm is great because the store is closed and there are no customers around.
An organized market, full of plans for the client, always looking for quality, a safe and clean workplace, all very well organized and a fair payment.
my job would be 100% if it was just run properly. people skills would go a long way plus listening to better working structures and treating people better for better work output
Pros
week on week off contract
Cons
unifirms
I feel as I'm just over 3years there i have achieved alot. I eas given supervisor duties in march 2019 which i enjoy especially learning new skills etc
Underpaid, not enough to cover living wage especially during this COVID pandemic. Good place to work, nice employers. Management is stressed and uncoordinated
