Voly

If I could give this company a 0 rating I would. Closing 4 stores in a single afternoon based on a decision made a few hours prior and letting go of a large number of staff including 80% of head office staff is not the type of place I would ever recommend working at. The business model is horrendous and even whilst knowing that, they willingly decided to continue to operate with 3 stores which will inevitably fail in the short-medium term. 

Management at VOLY for all stores was atrocious to say the least. Employees who were with the company for an extended period of time were not given increased responsibility but rather left to teach new supervisors and store managers on how to perform tasks. These new hires were paid more based on nepotism not by being better than actual hard-working employees. 

Lesson Learnt - Don't work for 2 CEO's and an area manager who have no idea how to run a startup successfully. Also never trust when a company says you're a part of their family (in my experience it doesn't end well).

P.S - The company "wasn't able" to setup proper Wi-Fi and NBN in one of the stores and 5 primary devices were only able to use a 4g modem for 6 months with continuous dropouts and very slow speeds. But the company was very much able to make the decision to close 4 stores in less than a day with no hesitation. Says a lot doesn't it.

Working at Voly is a very slow paced with not many things to do. The environment gives off good vibes with the colleagues you work with. However, management is a mess. The managers and supervisors barely do anything to contribute to the business and rather stay put throughout their shifts, scrolling through their phones. The manager always complains to others about all the hard work they are doing which is literally non-existent. There is a lot of gossip and bullying with in the workplace which leads to a toxic environment. Shifts are a pain to get with favouritism and work bias at play through out the workplace. I am unsure whether I would advise others to work here but if you do, don't expect much and be prepared for bare minimum which is the only thing they seem to exceed at. Also all staff are casual so expect the boot at anytime without any reason. 

I arrived 2nd month of the launch, since then I been so happy, I got accepted so fast I was so excited, asking as I know how to ride a bike the job is easy, I love talking to people, the Connection I been have with customers encourages me to keep going, the workplace is super friendly, we have little activities during work, the job is more of a hobby now than a job, insane right? Cause I love bike riding, this became a dream come true, after years of searching for a full time job, I finally found myself a great one, the team listens and helps you in anyway possible to make your life with voly more comfortable, I get paid better than in my last job, I'm truly honoured to be working with voly, and I hope you who is reading this can fill your life with joy, once your in, you go big! 🙂

Voly is a unique work experience that can be an absolute blast for the right kind of person. If you want to push yourself, learn a tonne, have a laugh and are ok operating in ambiguity then Voly is the place for you.

I recently left Voly, but can honestly say my time there has been some of the most valuable in my corporate career. It is a challenge and you have to be prepared for anything (which some people are not) but if you're up for it, it can be one awesome adventure.

My experience at VOLY was a strange one
Not only did I just skip the interview and got the job earlier but the workplace had no structure to it as in their management team is abysmal. It used to be a fun stress free environment however like most up and coming corporate companies the ceos of VOLY eventually focused on greed. There downfall is no care for the core store operators which there leaders are just kids who don’t know any better pretending to be responsible and mature.

CEOs need guidance, they have little idea what they’re doing and hired ppl to help them but then fired those ppl cos they cost too much. Short term decision making with no foresight will see this company fail.

If you are looking for work that is simple and easy to learn, Voly is for you, on top of that you get the bonus of going for a nice Bike ride every now and then, which makes the day pass much quicker.

If you arent comfortable riding a bike there are plenty of spots for solely Pick and Packing, Despatching (managing orders and tasking people with them) and much more.

Great working culture, highly collaborative, and as a startup, each day is different, so there is little stagnancy. For those who love the idea of working in a startup, consider applying. The skills you acquire here are invaluable. I've grown both personally and professionally during my time with VOLY.

It was a good place to work. People at work are all amazing. We had a great vibe working together but the real problem was the management. The store was closed down. We all left the job without getting notice. We all lost the job all at once. It was a very sad experience for me

If your looking to join a start up with room to grow into then I would recommend VOLY.   The team are friendly and professional and guide you into the role. I would recommend this company for anything from casual to a full time role.
