Karusel hypermarket: employee reviews

The largest supermarket chain "Karusel" provides jobs for hundreds of people across the country. Some are satisfied, others are not.

In their feedback, employeesThey say they love the job. Wages were paid on time. Trained on the job. For all questions, you can contact a senior employee or manager. The employee is assigned to the department where he works. Often I had to stay late at work (this time was not paid - a big minus). In their reviews, employees write that they explained in the correct form why they could not stay late and went home on time.

The "Karusel" store, which staff reviews vary, gives many students the opportunity to earn extra money. However, the working conditions and schedule do not suit many.

Negative feedback from former employees almost all begin with the fact that people are forced to work above the norm, and this time is not paid. Employees in the reviews say that managers treat staff disrespectfully, are rude and speak rudely. Working at Karusel (employee reviews say this) is hard work. For improper tone with the manager - dismissal. The store is in constant chaos and confusion. Management doesn't talk to workers. During inspections, if any shortcomings are found, they are immediately fired. Conditions for work are not created. Wages are low for such hard work.

Some other employees in the reviews say that the universal form is a big plus in their work. The company pays wages on time. If the day of payment falls on a weekend or holiday, then the money is transferred the day before. Working conditions leave much to be desired. Work in "Karusel" (according to the feedback of employees) is hard low-paid work. Management treats employees horribly. However, a close-knit team helps beginners. If you missed a product, then you pay for it in a double section. Many employees are interested in where the money goes. If the product is lying around in the department, then the employee also pays for it. The security service does not work at all. It seems that everyone is taken by acquaintance.

Customer Reviews

The network of stores "Karusel" fell in love with many residents of Russia. Buyers come to stores with the whole family and are satisfied.

In their reviews, customers say they like to come to Karusel for pastries. In the morning, the aroma of fresh pastries and bread spreads throughout the hypermarket. There is also a good selection of dairy and dairy products. Fresh milk, sour cream and cream can be purchased from the shop daily. There are always several brands and different fat content of products. Also, you can not ignore the choice of meat and poultry. A wide range of frozen products pleases all customers. Fruits, vegetables, nuts and sweets are all available at the chain's supermarkets.

Customer reviews indicate that Karusel cares about its customers. Nobody leaves the store empty-handed. Tea and coffee are represented by more than 50 brands of manufacturers. The price category is average. The choice of alcoholic beverages is also very wide. It is worth paying attention to sausages and seafood. The freshest products in a wide variety of packages are offered to customers in this supermarket.

Household goods and cosmetics (according to customer reviews) are best bought at Carousel. There is a wide range and low prices. There are almost always several items that you can buy at a discount of up to 50%. Delivery hypermarket "Karusel" works well. You can select the products you want and receive them at the specified address.

Some buyers in the reviews say that since the opening of the store began to lose ground. People used to come here to buy groceries almost every day. Now buyers who have left reviews go to Karusel only for promotional goods. The rest of the products are more expensive than in other stores, and the quality is noticeably inferior. It is profitable to buy discounted goods and pastries here.

Customers in their reviews say that these hypermarkets have their pros and cons. For example, there are always a lot of people in the Carousel. Time-tested experience says that you can come here both in the morning and in the evening, and there will be the same number of people. Carts are not just few, they are sorely lacking. At the peak of shopping, they are hunted in the store. Cosmetics are not presented in a wide range. The discount card of the store is a very mysterious thing (this is how customers respond), and it costs 200 rubles (in other stores it's free). Long queues at the box office because only half of them are open. And, of course, poor-quality products spoil the impression of the store. For many expiration dateson the verge. Therefore, you need to watch very carefully.

Conclusion

Employees of the hypermarket "Karusel" in different ways talk about their experience in this company. For some, this place was a good start to a career, but there are those who remember working in this store with horror.

Customers enjoy shopping at this chain's stores. However, many notice that "Karusel" began to lose its brand.
