    What’s it like working at Chemist Warehouse?

    AI summary of recent reviews

    Employees appreciate the friendly and supportive colleagues they work with, often forming lasting friendships and enjoying a sense of community at their stores. Many staff members also value customer interactions, particularly with regular customers, and find that the busy, fast-paced environment keeps them engaged throughout their shifts.

    However, there are some potential challenges to consider. Pay rates are typically at award minimum, which some employees feel may not fully reflect the demanding nature of the work. Management styles can vary between locations, with some stores experiencing more hands-on oversight than others. The workload can be substantial, particularly during busy periods, and staffing levels during peak times may feel stretched. Additionally, training processes differ across stores, and some employees would welcome more structured onboarding support, whilst recognition for contributions could be more consistent across the organisation.

    Reconsider. Looks good on a resume if you’re new to payroll.
    The good thingsFantastic in the beginning. Management cared about their employees and met/worked with some fantastic people. Long life friendships. Had career and project opportunities in the beginning.
    The challengesManagement became very toxic. Hard workers were only rewarded with more work, never praised. Poor salary - overworked and underpaid. Collegues are never trained correctly. Intense work, not enough payroll officers. Management don’t listen to complaints and are very petty - to the point where they won’t greet people in the morning because they are in a “bad mood”. Often make promises they can’t keep, promotions, project work etc. HR system full of issues that have never been fixed. Overall, grateful for the early experiences and people I’ve met. Not greatful for the poor management that I used to look up to. Disappointing as it used to be a very happy place - so not sure what changed with the management.
