Tesco Warehouse Operative/Picker reviews

There is absolutely zero care for your physical well being. I ended up with a massive blister under my toe in the first two weeks (because of the shoes THEY provided) and informed them that i wouldn’t be able to work that day. Had a fever on another occasion and called in sick. In a span of 3 months, I only took 2 days absence because of my physical condition, and I was denied the permanent contract because of ‘taking too many absences’ and this happened despite hitting 92% performance rating for 3 weeks straight. On my last day i remember my manager telling me ‘in Tesco’s even if u break your leg, you have to come to work, the only exception is if you have cancer or have an organ failure’. That is when I realised that this management is a joke. And the current employees are extremely rude to the new ones. Absolutely zero professionalism.

The actual job could be tough
