    Peter Alexander is Australia's most iconic pyjama brand. The Just Group acquired the business in 2000. Since then, Peter Alexander Sleepwear has grown with leaps and bounds from a pure catalogue-based company to a multi-channel business with 100 retail stores within Australia and New Zealand, with Peter Alexander himself as the brand’s Creative Director. Peter was dubbed the ‘Pyjama King’ by the Australian Media, and the nickname has stuck to this day! His humorous, quirky and playful personality shines through in every collection.

    What’s it like working at Peter Alexander?

    AI summary of recent reviews
    Employees value the generous staff discount of 50% off products, including Glasshouse candles, and appreciate their supportive coworkers who create a positive team atmosphere. Many enjoy working with the fun, iconic products and the brand's strong visual merchandising.

Some employees also mention challenges with workplace culture in certain stores, minimum wage pay, and limited progression opportunities.

    Literally wouldn't recommend this job to my own worst enemy.
    The good thingsThe discount is quite generous especially heading into the Christmas season.
    The challengesThe Company as a whole has a major culture and training issue. I had no support from my RM and the VM was rude. I was there only three months and they gave me only a weeks worth of training if that then sent me off on my own. The company parades it's self on treating their customer's like you would your own mother but maybe they should look at how they treat their own staff.

    Unpleasant experience put me off of retail forever.
    The good thingsThe staff discount, although minimal, was still good.
    The challengesI found the treatment I received to be unprofessional and discriminatory. Management and other employees were rude directly to me, and I did not feel welcome in the workplace.

    The challengeslack of support from any management/upper management
