Growth
Inventory Clerk (Current Employee) - Durban, KwaZulu-Natal - 1 May 2022
Pick n Pay is good and nice company to work for. They have good working standards with good culture. It all depends on the location of the store and management. Management can sometimes give a bad picture of pick n pay to newlyweds. Pick n Pay also pay good salary compared to shoprite-checkers, spar and others

Unpleasant work atmosphere
Supervisor (Former Employee) - Durban, KwaZulu-Natal - 27 October 2020
The managers harass you and expect you to work like a slave. If you don't take your lunch break by 13:00 you forfeit it. Managers attitudes towards staff does not promote healthy working environment instead you constantly feel stressed. The owner was verbally abusive (swearing staff).
Pros
None
Cons
Working on your feet. Not allowed to sit. The salary does not justify the workload

bad leadership
Manager (Current Employee) - Durban, KwaZulu-Natal - 30 December 2019
my experience here is no communication no acknowledgment of any ideas or achievements and no HR to assist in your queries,you must at times run the entire store with skeleton staff and I also get involved in departments but no gratitude for that just ignored by owners and franchise owners
Pros
none
Cons
none
