Savers/Value Village Employer Reviews

long hours not enough pay. horrible management rude co-workers

Busy but fun place to work, there was always something to do, never time to stand around.Helping customers, cleaning sales floor, clearing fitting room area.Team members cheerfully helped each and enjoyed chatting briefly with customers.When someone called in sick there was always too much work to be done, but somehow we still always made it .It feels – more... good to finish everything before going home at night. Seeing the many friendly faces of customers each day always made me feel good. – less

At work i would ring out customers who would come into my line to purchase clothing as well as bringing out donated clothing and items and putting them in back onto the shelves or racks. I was also responsible for cleaning the store and maintaining the cleanliness till closing time.

A typical day at work would include coming in setting up the showcase display. My managers were nice and honest, them seem to be stressed out alot, so my day would also involve helping them out as much as i could. I learned something new almost everyday that i worked there. I learned alot about all kinds of jewelry, pictures and old and vintage items. – more... There was no hard part to this job, however sales day was a little stressful. I enjoy helping people and talking to people. – less

It really takes dedication to work for this company because you have a lot of tasks at one time

Walk store to see what is needed on sales floor. Check back stock to fill what is needed. Check on call outs, to fill vacant positions. Check sales from previous days transactions. Check labor module,monitor labor hour to stay on budget.Product was the hardest part of my job, You dont know what you get until you open the box or bag. I love to work with – more... people., along with making our numbers across the board. – less

This workplace is a very fast-paced environment. The prices and quality of the products is excellent; however, the job security and advancement opportunities is diminutive.

Savers is a good place to work for steady hours and income. No one ever worried about a shortened work hours or being in trouble for sick days. This job was exciting in that I got to work with new materials rather than narrowing my experience to just customer service. Donations are always coming in and it's amazing to see what you find. The hardest – more... part about this job the I had experienced is that management isn't always on top when there is employee conflict. Management was easily to get along with though and never said no to listening. – less

its very fast pace. kinda keep to your self place.... I learned how to separate different types of clothing.my co workers weren't the most friendly. majority of them don't speak English so its very hard to communicate. there is ONLY 4 managers store manager, production manager and 2 assistant managers.... my fav. part of this job is smoking breakes

Working at slavers is not worth the hassle. Every day our quota is raised to make management look good but the employees get nothing in return. They don't care if you have a family, savers comes first. I have been there a while with no raise or even a "good job today." They have poor training with No room for advancement. They hire managers from the – more... outside so they really have no idea what's going on. One of the only reason people stay there is because of the mon- fri work days but the have changed it to tuesday thru saturday. If you cant work that they said you can quit or go parttime and they'll just replace you! Just like that! They make your overprocess so they can cut your hours at the end of the week. As a business it makes sense, but for employees who live check to check, this really hurts. They brag about being a $1.2 billion dollar company but barely pay minimum wage! Don't waste your time. – less

Great place to work and to meet people. The benefits of this job is that we receive a discount. Everyone likes to save a little.

hours and pay are not worth the hassle to me because of the fighting between people there between workers and management

First job, Was a little demanding at first dealing with customers for the first time but super easy job and competitive pay rates.

Train, plan, evaluate and delegate responsibilities- observe work done and provide final sanction upon completion. Skill in the direction and development of each individual and team personnel. Assisted in interviewing, hiring, and training of both front and back of house employees in accordance with company guidelines

A typical Day at work consist of maintaining the store fitting rooms and ringing out customers, my team of co workers are a good bunch who are focused on the job at hand and completing projects as assigned by the management team on a daily basis.

The hardest part of working for the company is being able keep busy for the entire shift and not filling – more... waste time. – less

A typical day at work was awful, standing outside in the rain, then greeting customers soaking wet in a ridiculous costume, while being ignored by the other employees.
