LOWBLAWS CITY MARKET

This place is a gong show. I cannot stress how much this place and its managers prioritize favoritism. There are little to no chances for advancement, and when there are chances, you're very unlikely to get them as favoritism comes into place here once again. If you do get put into a position that is higher than the one you currently work at, then there is very little chance that you actually get a raise. There's also no guarantee that you will stay within that position as they like to not put you down as set position on paper so they can avoid paying you higher. I would avoid working for this place, at least until they get better management that actually cares about their employees. Over worked and underpaid. 

-Typical day was I would open 2 departments on the days where the seafood lady was off. I had to price and wrap all meats then open seafood then prep and fill the meat case while still pricing and dealing with customers in both departments. Mornings are he'll!! And doesn't help when there are coworkers trying to micromanage you. Night shift is hard as well. You are usually by yourself anywhere from 2-5+ hours for both departments. 
-Don't expect more than minimum wage (even if you are a qualified meat cutter). 
-Flexible hours 👍
-management do not take any training or courses. Just thrown in and wing it. They do not know how to keep a professional life separate from private life.

Lowblaws was a fun work place to be at. A typical day involved cleaning out the backroom by recycling all the cardboard and plastic waste leftover from night restocking, stocking the frozen coolers, and helping customers find their products. Management was very helpful and they help us figure out a job routine in order to maximize efficiency.

 Let your manager know when your exact availability days because they would often put on schedule if you do not say when you are/not free come to work

I have been bullied by own peers and my manager nothing is okay there very stressful hours aren’t Given fairly it’s more of a popularity contest to much gossiping!

It is a good place to learn about Canadian Culture for immigrants. there is a friendly relationship between managers and staff. There is not any benefit for employees. the salary is low in comparison to other similar jobs.

Lowblaws City Market is a place where you can acquire new skills. as I worked in the seafood department I learned to do inventory and rotation of products, preparing in-store products and giving customer service.

able to finish work load with ease. coworkers are nice and manager is fair. able to get time off when needed. able to listen to music and work independently.

I would not work there over night again, not really liking the way other staff members are about the way the handle the safety of the people that work there overnight.
