Waitrose reviews

Not sure there will be enough space to write everything. Unrealistic targets set by managers to try and get themselves to look good, then fiddle targets for their own needs. If you don't suck up to management then your the target of continued bullying and Harassment. Constant lies from management and get other managers to lie for them to cover up their incompetance. Health and saftey is a complete joke when an accident happens just watch all the managers scurrying around to cover it up. They only use CCTV evidence when it suits them if you asked to see certain camera footage they would either say camera not working or it doesn't cover that area. Managers stealing and getting admin to cover it up. Managers fighting at xmas party. Drug abuse is rife among the senior managers, Some managers like to surround themseles with the younger ones in their team, quite sick actually, then tell you its a young mans game. Don't be fooled by the partnership values they focus on at induction.

During 2013-4 the IT Department was eviscerated at the management level with about half the team taking voluntary or (mostly) forced redundancy following a restructure. You could argue (but should not assume) that's because they no longer had the appropriate skills, despite many of them having 20+ years service - however that would be a telling reflection of under-investment in their development over that time rather than any basic lack of competence. Or perhaps the changed expectations of them are wrong. Virtually all the affected staff who haven't taken early retirement have quickly found comparable jobs elsewhere. Staff were not given support to adapt to the new structure, it was considered easier to get rid of them - which is inconsistent with the caring image the company likes to project. And it's that hypocrisy that has hurt people the most.
