Truly awful - Generalist Victoria's Secret Employee Review

Where to start ! At first i was so excited to be accepted to the onboarding for the Liverpool store but this soon wore thin once I actually started the job . The majority of permanent staff were so hostile and unfriendly , talk of us stealing their hours and not having a clue about the job were constantly mentioned , this made for a miserable existence from day 1 , some Managers were utterly unapproachable and rude , it was just shocking and often left myself and other seasonal staff on the verge of tears . Being new to the job you need to learn from others such as the permanent staff but they were not interested in the slightest and seasonal staff were often humiliated for their mistakes over the shop radios , or on the shop floor , this is utterly degrading and embarrassing .To get by in this store you have to be a managers favourite , even if this means stealing other people's sales and talking about other staff members in a derogatory fashion just to fit in . Often , favoured temps were put in charge of other temps , this is such an unprofessional way of organising staff and getting the job done , it does nothing other than breed resentment and cause friction , it just reeks of laziness from the management and permanent staff .My time at the store left me feeling miserable and quite insecure , I work hard and was always in work and on time , but unfortunately if your face doesn't fit you might as well get your coat , as I found out . Not to be all negative , there were some lovely team members and managers , but the bad outnumber the good . All in all it wasn't the job itself , I enjoyed the work there ( even the panty bar !) and the brand is beautiful but certain staff and management at this store made the job unbearable and frankly I was relived when my contract came to an end , unless there are some major changes within the hirerachy and attitudes of the staff at this store , I couldn't and wouldn't reccomend this job to anyone .
