Good - Merchandiser Oakwood Distribution Employee Review

Interesting merchandising work, good support from head office

Pay was quite low for a retail orientated job

Ive worked at oakwood for 2 years, and i couldnt have asked for a better job as a student. My boss is lovely and very considerate, and i am friendly with all my colleagues. I can fit my shifts around my university degree, and can also get more shifts during the summer whilst covering my colleagues. As a student, I can take on as many hours as i can manage, but also have the option to drop hours if im struggling. My monthly reviews with my manager also ensure that im not struggling or have any questions. I would also consider working my way up after university as opposed to pursuing my degree. Couldn't have asked for a better job!

Unfortunately, Tesco colleagues are not always as accommodating as Oakwood staff and originally asked me to complete jobs that weren't my duty. However, my manager ensured that I was comfortable and knew my duties, as well as spoke to tesco managers himself.
