Friendly and comfortable environment . Giving opportunities to employees willing to grow with the company

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Opening up the store to a queue of customers . Serving customers and taking stock to shelves throughout the store

I wish to advance but this company is just taking advantage of the wage subsidy and then employing other people when your own wage subsidy runs out. You are given a couple of hours training and then they are frustrated at the constant questions you ask i.e. - how do you give someone cash out on the register - I had never touched a cash register before only a foreign exchange converter

A typical day at work involves serving customers, cleaning both the store and the food preparation area, stocking shelves and fridges and  ensuring that store presentation is pristine. The management can be strict at times but only if you aren't working properly. They are also very fair and very approachable. This is a great place to kick start your working career.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Best part is when you go home 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Not even getting a 5 minute toilet break 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
They don’t help you at all and also don’t tell u when u don’t have shifts

A day at work could be cooking, cleaning, serving, packing, ordering or many other duties or getting called in I would always say yes to help the team out.

Great place to work.

Team leaders are great and helpful and so are all staff members.

Having to say good bye and more on is hard but I will always shop there.

Great customer service!

I have learnt a lot of managerial skills by attending the various audits, it helped me to develop soft skills. The workplace is not healthy because it is a chemical unit but the production crew will have all disposable safety preventions like the nose mask, aprons and few other items to protect ourselves.

First time I worked in a grocery store is with the Friendly Grocer (formerly IGA). I am thankful for the manager for the trust and the encouragement to do better each day. I learned a lot of skills by working there: from cashiering, stocking properly, bagging, providing excellent customer service, and others. 

Highly recommended!

I was told full training would be provided and learning new skills. But all I do is put stock on shelves and clean the store, I barely serve customers and nobody has bothered to put the effort to properly teach my how to use the front till. I'm used just to clean and restock on very low pay. I don't recommend working here.
