Woolworths Scam
Woolworths 'per item' produce pricing is a scam. Paid $9.96 for 12 bananas today, $0.83 each, total weight 1.586kg ($6.27/kg). In-store, price is $4.50/kg. How is this not illegal??? EDIT: OK, perhaps I was being a little dramatic. I agreed to their pricing, so technically it's not illegal and not a scam. My concern was more about the lack of disclosure that there's a hidden markup on produce when purchasing online that isn't immediately obvious at the time of purchase. Woolworths seems to do a very good job at making you believe that you're purchasing from an actual shop, and paying in-store prices, whereas in reality, this is not the case. Thanks for all the comments. I stand corrected. EDIT 2: On closer inspection, it actually is a bit of scam. Not in a literal sense (in the same way drip pricing, fake discounting, hidden surcharges, and price gouging are not technically a scam) but more in a practical sense. One commenter noted that the ACCC is already aware of this and are currently investigating. Another commenter noted that in-store weighing is standard pratice for online orders in Tesco (UK). EDIT 3: I'm genuinely surprised with how many people seem happy with this type of pricing behaviour, defending Woolies, and suggesting people who shop online are "lazy" and "should shop elsewhere". Personally I'm grateful that I'm luckily enough to be able to visit shops, but I know first hand that many people aren't. For many others, the demands and pressures of everyday life mean they are unable to spend countless hours shopping around comparing deals, and are often 'forced' to made sub-optimial choices. Which may not be an issue for discretionary purchases, but might be for essentials such as food. So while it might seem like a logical argument to blame the customer in times of market abuse, in practice it's not always so clear cut. submitted by /u/SingleAttitude8 to r/australia [link] [comments]

I understand genuine problem staff, or staff destroying Woolworth’s property, but come on?. Genuine workers who come in do their jobs and have a brain glitch?

Side note, I used work as a qualified baker at Coles. It’s the same deal with every supermarket Bakery. The higher ups always complain about not being able to get/keep bakers. The pay is shit, the hours are shit and management is shit. Getting $28 an hour with a qualification behind you is straight up robbery. Working 10+ hours a day with no breaks and being scolded when the required amount of production doesn’t get done is laughable. Here’s an idea Coles and Woolies, pay your bakers what they actually deserve instead of giving them an hourly wage of a McDonalds worker and you might actually start getting some bites on those thousands of vacant job listings you have. submitted by /u/Aussie_Nelson to r/woolworths [link] [comments]

What happened to Woolworths?
The quality of Woolworths has rapidly declined. Week after week the shelves have been running empty, a lot of them are filthy. Nothing is being faced anymore, procude and meat has dropped in quality, staff ALWAYS look unhappy. Even the glass throughout the chilled section is filthy. What is going on? It used to be a pleasant place to shop but now it feels horrible. It quite literally feels gross to walk through there. I've added 3 photos from today, there were many other empty, messy, and dirty shelves throughout this store. submitted by /u/LittleInsaniity to r/newzealand [link] [comments]

@thangcuoi: It's my first time using IGA Rewards too. You just need to scan your IGA Rewards card when you shop, similar to Flybuys or Woolworths Rewards. If you can see the digital receipt in your account, chances are the cashback is already showing as pending. There's a cashback tile on the home page, if you tap on it, you should be able to see all your pending and approved cashback offers.

$2 per kg or $2 per packet. How good is not shopping at Coles and Woolworths.
After seeing all the depressing posts about Coles and Woolworths holding you city folk to ransom, I thought I'd give some contrasts with what it's like outside the rat race. This is from my local wholesale supermarket. Everything in my trolley is Australian, as is just about everything else in store. It's the same size store and they've got all the major brands you'd find at the big two supermarkets, however unlike Colesworth they've got an in store bakery, butcher and they're not afraid to put staff on the registers! Like an oldschool supermarket they've even got fruit cartons/boxes out the front so you don't need to use the "environmentally friendly" reusable bags. They have these $1, $2, $5, $10 specials on all the time which covers all essential items. I only needed the lunch snacks here but every aisle is littered with $2 tickets atm. I always shop here, and I tell everyone I know to do the same. I hope they expand into more towns so you guys are given some proper competition and choice for groceries.

Woolworths might not be a good career choice anymore..
Here in New Zealand we have had a restructure of the Woolworths working model which went live November 5th where all the supervisor roles were slashed save 1 or a few per store to oversee the team. managerial roles were reduced by 4-6 and were renamed to s.os roles (service operational specialist). Experienced employee's in supervisor/managerial positions were faced with a choice to either take redundancy or re apply through the s.o.s position with a reduced pay, so ultimately this means more work less pay for most if not everyone because this ultimately affects just normal workers as well in terms of more work but same pay for normal workers with no major role. So with this new restructured model, it seems like Woolworths has become one of those temporary places where you want to work only a couple months or maybe even a year or two to gather some money then move on, It seems like the turnover rates are going to skyrocket and we will have fewer experienced people staying because why would they want to work more for less. I've been here for 2 years and 8 months prior to the restructure model going live and I've loved working here, I enjoy working with most of my co-workers and I get along with everyone in my store, I'm worth 3 workers, i'm experienced, fast, efficient, friendly, helpful and actually want the team to succeed and everyone to go home with a smile on their face, but with the new model it doesn't seem like a career focused job anymore and just somewhere you go to what I posted above, for some quick money. I was hoping to get bumped up to a supervisor position and was asking for some additional incentives because I know I deserve it but even the management at my store can't create something out of nothing.

Burnt out?
Title :-) I’m currently working at a Big 4 and I can’t say I enjoy it. I spend over an hour commuting, deal with the same repetitive shit all day and I fantasise about working at Woolworths - because who the hell would spend 3+ hours a day commuting. My background is primarily shift work and I did that for 7 years or so. I’ve been in this job for 18 months and honestly? I am over it. No WFH, though I (I’d say) I have a good boss. He’s fairly hands off and doesn’t micromanage, so I’m a happy little Vegemite. For the record I retrained and I’m considering either quitting and going back to study (I’m not sure what), or just going back to what I used to do. Who the fuck wants to wake up at 5:30 to start at 8am? I’m looking forward to the Christmas break at least.

Woolworths is absolute dog shit
Fuck woolworths. Bought chicken breast yesterday to cook tonight and it already smells like shit. Usually go to the foodland but the Woolworths is closer and it was a shit day so I just wanted to fuck off home. They never have anything you want in stock. Aisles full of click and collect pickers and staff filling shelves, you can’t even get to down the aisle or see what’s on any of the shelves. Cameras everywhere watching your every move. The most frustrating self serve checkouts, trying to milk profits by not employing enough staff to actually offer any degree of service. Absolute hell on earth. Not to mention how they treat the farmers. Heard their profits were down, absolutely deserved. Your family friendly green grocer image doesn’t align with the dystopian food monopoly that it actually is (ok, I’m going a bit far now but I’m pissed off lol) submitted by /u/BUSINESS_KILLS to r/woolworths [link] [comments]

Noticing more people quitting Woolworths lately — why are you quitting (or staying)?
There’s always been a bit of turnover in minimum wage jobs, but lately it feels like way more people are quitting Woolies or just seem unhappy. Every week it feels like someone new is gone, shifts are getting shuffled around constantly, and morale’s dropping across departments. People are either burning out or just don’t care anymore. So I’m curious — if you’ve quit recently, or you’re planning to, what made you decide? And if you’re staying… why? submitted by /u/Longjumping_Tree_531 to r/woolworths [link] [comments]

Obviously this isn't financial advice it's just my experience with the company. Most casuals, juniors, have never read the EBA. But inside that HR jargon lives a goldmine of ways to boost your pay, maximise breaks, and get ahead early. Here's how I legally “scammed” Woolies from the inside. Quick context: I used to work at Woolies and left after I got long service leave. I started as a casual at 14 and 9 months, working my way to service supervisor, then duty manager (before the role was phased out) and then relief store manager. I’ve worked opens, closes, public holidays, and everything in between. This isn’t theory, it’s stuff that actually worked for me. And honestly? A lot of it helped me set me up my initial years financially. 1. Casual vs Part-Time: Why Stability Doesn’t Matter Yet If you’re under 20, you’re already on junior rates, which means your hourly pay is lower than adult staff. Ironically, that makes you more appealing to managers who want to cut costs. Believe me when I tell you, every manager wants to cut costs. Casual loading (25% ADDITIONAL pay) makes casual work far more lucrative, especially when you're not relying on leave. If you're reliable, meaning you don’t cancel shifts last minute, you’ll get rostered regularly anyway. In that case, a part-time contract doesn't give you anything new, except a 25% pay cut and less flexibility. Once you're 20+ or in uni, part-time might make more sense, especially if you want: Guaranteed hours Leave entitlements The ability to structure shifts around classes That being said you should definitely decide what your priorities are and what will work for you. When I took a contract I didn’t want it to effect my social life, so I took 7pm-12pm Monday and 5pm-10pm Sunday. Both very uninstructive shifts and both also with good loadings (I cover loadings in the next section) Big tip: When semester timetables change, prep your manager in advance, so they know you may need to change your contract shifts around because of university commitments. This way, when you ask to swap to a different contracted shift, they will be more likely to accept. Bonus: If you can get yourself to work without relying on your parents, you're instantly more flexible and more likely to get offered last-minute fill-ins. 2. Loadings: When You Should Actually Care What Day You Work This is where most juniors miss out shift loadings can drastically increase your hourly rate if you work the right days and times. Penalty Rates – Woolworths (Casual) Day Time Additional Loading Mon–Fri 7:00am – 6:00pm No Loading Mon–Fri 6:00pm – 11:00pm +25% Saturday 7:00am – 11:00pm +25% Mon–Sat 11:00pm – 7:00am +50% (first 3 hrs) → +100% (after) Sunday 12:00am – 9:00am +100% Sunday 9:00am – 11:00pm +50% Sunday 11:00pm – 12:00am +100% Note: These are on top of the 25% casual loading. So a casual Sunday shift before 9am = 100% loading + 25% casual = 225% pay rate. Best shifts to chase: Sunday mornings (before 9am) Early opens (before 7am any day) Saturday and Sunday anytime Weeknights after 6pm This means and after school shift of 5-8 is far better than 3:30-6:30, as you’re getting two entire hours of 25% additional pay, versus only 30m of an additional 25%. 3. Junior Rates – And Why They’re Bullshit Here’s what you actually earn compared to a 20-year-old doing the same job: Junior Pay Rates – Woolworths Age % of Full Adult Rate 16 50% 17 60% 18 70% 19 80% 20 100% If you're under 20, you're making a fraction of what someone else gets - for doing the exact same work. Advice: Stay casual. Avoid part-time contracts unless: You need leave entitlements You’re being offered mostly Sunday/PH shifts You’re 20+ and getting closer to full adult rates When asked about availability, say something like: “I’m flexible, just cap me at X hours a week for school.” 4. Shift Lengths & Break Optimisation This is where managers quietly cost you money if you’re not careful. Shift traps to avoid: 3h45m shifts → No paid break, same amount of work as a 4h shift 5–6h shifts with forced unpaid 30m break → You can often opt out Better shift choices: Length Paid Breaks Unpaid Breaks Good? 3h None None ✅ 4h 15m None ✅✅ 5h 15m Opt out of 30m ✅✅✅ 7–8h 2 x 15m 1 x 30m ✅✅✅✅ Once you’re in uni, try stacking hours. I preferred doing 15 hours in 2 days rather than stretching it over 3. 5. The “Higher Duties” Hack Doing supervisor-level work = supervisor level pay regardless of age. That includes: Opening or closing the store Safe counts Managing other staff Running the front end or service desk Most employees don’t know this, but the EBA says: if you do higher duties, you get paid at the higher rate and junior rates don’t apply. How to unlock this: Express interest in learning closes Volunteer for coverage when supervisors are sick or on leave Take on annoying shifts like Sunday nights or early opens to build trust This applies to online department roles too, though some stores are too small to have a dedicated online team. 6. Climb the Ladder While You’re Young Want to be earning $30+/hr by the time you're in first-year uni? Get yourself into supervisor shifts with penalty loadings. How to do it: Apply at smaller stores less competition Be the “yes” junior who always shows up and learns quickly Learn opens and closes as early as possible (this makes you irreplaceable) Aim to get Sunday night or early AM contracts once you’re trained Stack higher duties with penalty rates and you’ll be making adult money before you even hit 20. Final Thoughts Working at Woolies while you're young is less about what you're paid per hour and more about how you play the game. Learn the EBA. Time your shifts. Learn the high-paying roles. And above all - don’t accept less just because you’re younger. There are so many gold mines in the EBA which I won’t cover in this post as I’ll hit a text limit such as share purchase programs, long service leave, performing multiple roles in one shift, overtime, standard hours and much much more. I’m happy to share some more insights that I’ve learnt in the comments, especially surrounding how I found contracts worked, and what contracts you should be aiming for.

TIL in the late-1990s the old five and dime department store chain F. W. Woolworth shifted focus to its high-performing specialty shoes division, and in 2001 changed its name to Foot Locker.

Woolworths and the death of customer service.
They expect the customers to scan and bag their own groceries. They cut employee numbers drastically to make this happen. They put in individual surveillance systems to film customers, without their authority, because they don't trust their customers to scan and bag their own groceries. Idiots. Then when all their staff at the warehouses start striking they just don't do anything and wait out their employees knowing that they can't hold out forever. Woolworths is seriously the Devil. submitted by /u/jordyw83 to r/australia [link] [comments]

Woolworths total amount due is more than the sum of my actual purchases
Was annoyed that the amount due on my Woolies purchase did not equate to the individual items I purchased (1.60 + 4.20 + 5.26 + 4.65 = $15.70). Hoping that you all don't get taken advantage by colesworth even further amidst all the already inflated prices.. submitted by /u/CleanDivide690 to r/australia [link] [comments]
