Working for Tesco was a very enjoyable job as the staff were friendly and my I enjoyed my job role. Being able to assist customers with their needs was very satisfying. I learned about how businesses like Tesco work and that training is very necessary for a place like Tesco. My co-workers were always very pleasant and welcoming, which made the job better.

Staff are well integrated.
Training and equipment given is adequate.
Business priorities conflict with other policies, particularly food hygiene and health and safety.
Standards varied depending on managers that were present and the number of customers that were in store.

when working for tesco i really enjoyed it the shifts suited me and was fairly paid if given the chance to go back i would almost certainly go back.

A typical day at work would include operating the checkout. Metting and greeting customers.

A perfect job to work around college, uni or family life. Flexible.

A typical day at work will be fast paced, somewhat busy and have a friendly atmosphere. Since working at Tesco Express i have learnt team work, diversity of skills and i have enhanced my communication skills with collegues and the public. The management team are all very friendly, hardworking and will help out whenever the situation arises. My co-workers – more... all work to the best of their abilities and are a lovely group of people. The hardest part of the job is when you have to deal with an irate customer. the most enjoyable part of the job is when you have a customer who takes an interest in you and becomes a friend as well as a customer. – less

I love the job that I do and dealing with regular customers/patients and have built up some good relationships with them. – less

I have worked for Tesco for over 20 years and have enjoyed it immensely

You learn lots of different skills, and can adapt your department experience if you so wish to.They give everyone equal opportunities.

At early morning open the store and prepare staffs and fresh goods and bakery for people.put every where goods on the shelves, keep clean the store and people are happy that they are in our supermarket.so during the day every body must do also another tasks according to weekly plan and manager assistant must control every thing.another my duties are – more... cash handling reporting to manager and top manager all the issues during the day, read the email from online common web portal and check out if there is some task to do and answer to customers for whatever they ask.and so etc. – less

A very good place to work with. A very well known brand with mix of culture and values. Offers good benefits and support to employees through training and validation.
The hardest and most enjoyable part of the job is satisfying customers, identifying their needs and offering services to them

kids as managers who have never done the jobs or actually have a driving licence,vans are never loaded having to work bank holidays even if you say you can't work they phone you up and tell you you have to work.unsociable hours.Only good thing is that you get to go out on the road.If you need the work and actually pass the driving assessment but thats – more... a big if as its 1 in 20 that pass its not a bad job as long as you ain't planning on staying too long.If your a tesco person and you live breathe and dream socialize with tesco "as they want everyone to be" you can go a long way. – less

Typical day at work for me is hourly checks of shop floor, toilets, cafe's, and all other parts of the store. Attending spills, use of cleaning machinary and other tools.

I learnt how to be assertive, always alert, and always to be ready for a busy day.

Cleaning tesco shop floor walking round the shop sweeping up any rubbish and removing marks from the floor

working in a store like tesco was eye opening to how enjoyable work could really be. Everyone i worked with was polite and enthusiastic, helpful when needed. The hardest part of my job would have been the conditions in which we had to work in, your job becomes difficult when to many people are around how ever the best part of my job was the satisfaction – more... you get after completing a task well. – less

Worked with a good team of people Good job satisfaction and career alternatives

i really enjoyed being busy and the constant stream of different people, i didn't really like quiet times but there was always plenty to do. i met lots of people and i was sad to leave.

Awful company to work for, they don't value their staff one little bit.

A typical day at Tesco would be stocking shelves with fresh food such as ready meals, dairy, meat, chicken and fruit juices. I also regularly worked on the checkouts serving customers. I learned a lot working at Tesco, I had lots of training within many fields of work such as; Age related sales, Safety in the workplace, Fire evacuation, Fresh food hygiene – more... & handling. Management and co-workers were lovely and they were a pleasure to work with! The hardest part of the job would be when you have to work within a deadline. This was rare when we had to rush to get the job done but I kept things different and offered more challenging work. By far the most enjoyable part of the job would simply being satisfied with the work and assistance you have given to the customers and your co-workings. – less

It was at Tesco where I found my confidence in able to talk to others with ease, conversing with customers and my colleagues at a respectable level. I have stepped in as Team Leader which gave me a range of advanced skills in how the business works, and also worked on other departments voluntarily. Colleagues are easy to talk to and approach if there – more... is an issue, with respect at both ends to be able to resolve the issue at question. After five years of working here, I do not believe it holds the opportunities for the skills I wish to possess, nor the career path I wish to follow. – less
