Excellent learning curve on how not to manage staff

Typical day at work is opening and closing the store, ensure all the staff arrive for their shifts on time otherwise make alternative arrangements. Ensure that bakery and kitchen staff have their daily orders on track, ensure that cashiers are logged onto their till on time. Check any maintenance issues, fridges walk in freezers and call appropriate maintenance contractor for repairs., Check daily reports, incident reports from the night before. Place orders with suppliers, interview new staff and ensure the operation runs smoothly

Pros: the customers
Cons: poor managers

It was a good,learning curve on a Management training view

Although a managers in retail I missed IT too much. Software and problem. Solving IT issues is more my field.. The company as a group is good but as an individual store run by owners not so good. Staff treated poorly, paid poorly and no room for promotions.

Pros: Good training field for Management positions
Cons: long hours as in 14 days no off days, no promotion positions available

Excellent learning curve

It was an excellent learning curve but lacked the team work and poor communication and training of staff. Staff were hard working willing to put in extra hours but training was poor and were not appreciated. Overall Spar as a group is not bad at all

Pros: great staff
Cons: poor Management

Excellent learning experience

Good company to work for but the branch had poor managers. No proper training and managers did not care about their staff. No proper guidelines for the staff to follow but this was a branch not a Corporate issue

Pros: really good staff
Cons: long hours poor managers

Excellent learning curve

Although it was an excellent learning curve I found that the Management were not very computer literate. Lacked Management skills and treated their staff poorly. However this is not the group but the store only. Excellent staff.

Pros: opportunity to learn about retail
