The store in which I worked at has poor management skills. They do not particularly care for their workers. Was required to put onto our clock on/clock off system that I had had a 20 minute break even though I did not receive such a break ever. Management did not pass on messages efficiently to head office e.g. reasons for work absences. For such a large company on site training was poor. Management never once spelt my name correctly even though it was written down multiple times a shift. Poor communication also between management and staff. For example the store I worked at had been robbed the previous night and I walked into a trashed store unaware of the previous nights events and was not notified until management came in an hour after my shift started. 

Overall I would not encourage anyone to work for the company unless it is a last resort.

United is such huge group . I learned so many things to develop my  my career and my skills.  I’ve done so much hard work and long hours  standing and increase the daily sales Target . 

 And the United management helps every time to achieve the goals for the store  structure 

The worst part is you can’t draw your income either way you want to you can do as much you can hard work but income is just state which I would say it’s not enough for one person to manage everything

The only part is you just stand on one place you can’t draw your income it doesn’t matter whatever it takes whatever you do in the shop

Management is a joke instructing maintenance to take short cuts to avoid loss of production. 
Management not knowing how the plant runs causing breakdowns qnd not using the knowledge of staff who have been running the plant for years.
Environmental pollution issues are swept under the rug as well as well as workplace injuries.

Pay is a joke, working in a hazardous environment and getting payed as much if not less than a woolies shelf packer.

Terrible work culture. A typical day consists of upper management walking through the office yelling at the top of their voices at employees belittling them and using foul language. Many lazy employees who don't take responsibility and pass on work to the people below them. Many of the employees are family or friends of the directors and frequently get promoted despite the fact that they don't know how to do a full days work.

Quite honestly one of the most bizarre organizations I have come to work for. Albeit in the six months during my tenure I saw unethical levels of coercion and blatant corruption. Ultimately and rightly or wrongly United Petroleum exists to serve the Directors, and they are most unpleasant to interact with. One, in particular, is verbally abusive and unrealistic. It goes without saying that the culture is toxic with demeaning racist undertones projected from all corners of the business

What is the best part of working at the company?
Going home...seriously avoid at all costs

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Dealing with owners who are awful yo everyone and people who will happily throw you under a bus to cover themselves

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Awful...there are no positives

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Get screamed at by Directors then spend all day trying not to get shafted by fellow employees

Well where to start management has a lot to learn i do not think that any of them have any qualification's as either logistic  or managers it's jobs for the mate's at the present time they are meant to be sharing work around but it is the same people working and others are losing money and having to use up there holidays to make up weekly pays, i would not advise any one applies for a job with this company at the moment until there are some management changes.

Usually, days are busy at united. During the shift, we interact with lot of people and customer satisfaction is our primary motto. I learned the process, console operation, generating and entering shifts and day reports and store replenishment and merchandising. Apart from that, manager was supportive. it was a great experience working with the staff. The most enjoyable part of the job is to meet our customers everyday and new customers as well.

working at the united service station i learnt a lot of knowledge and as this was my first job in australia i had a great experience  with customer service and looking after the fore court area  and the console  area .i  used to to do all the major product ordering and also looking at the expiry of the product and even more tried best to upsale the business for which i received an appreciation from the manager of the store

The hardest part of the job is to collect the fuel readings and dips of each fuel category manually at the End of the Day followed by calculating the data. Later, data is entered manually in the software which at times wouldn't work.  Also, the service to the customers is paused during the End of Day procedure for few minutes and most customers would be frustrated due to the inconvenience. Convincing them to wait is the most hardest part of the job.
