Asda

Store assistant Sarah C. Went above and beyond to help us yesterday in store. Struggling to get a photograph printed from the instore machine, Sarah took charge of the situation. We were so pleased to obtain a great print, as left to our own devices this would never have been the case. Thank-you Sarah C. For your time kindness, and skill.

Staff member went above & beyond her duty to help find what I was looking for and I would put Emma forward for promotion or a special reward it great when you get a member of staff willing. To help what ever it takes I felt appetited as a customer. Customer service could not help enough either . I would recommend this store. Thanks to Emma and all staff for a fantastic service.

Well, where do I start with Asda Barrow. I started working at Asda Barrow on a temporary contract during the pandemic, I was placed on to the Home shopping department as many people were then staying away from the store and getting their shopping delivered. My first 2 weeks at Asda resulted in 12 hour shifts (some days even longer) because of the pure lack of organisation. After nearly two weeks of long hours I finally had my first day off. Shifts would normally start at 2am which meant I would regularly see the night shift staff, I now know why they work at night and not when customers are in store, many would swear and shout abuse at new starters particularly a ‘lady’ called Andrea (who threatened to punch me in the face if I got too close to her). Many staff at Asda Barrow were not friendly to the new starters including myself especially the assistant manager who genuinely seemed like a playground bully. A few weeks in we were told we would be receiving a bonus for all of our hard work and for working strenuous hours during these unprecedented times by several members of staff and management and THE MANAGER HIMSELF only to find out a few days before that me and many new starters were exempt from the bonus as the cut off date for it was the 15th March (clearly that date on purpose as we were all taken on by the 21st of March). I would recommend that people stay away from this store, it has no remorse for its staff for putting their lives on the line so I can’t imagine it has much more for its customers. They show no gratitude to staff for starting at ridiculous hours, and can happily tell their staff their getting bonuses to then backtrack on their statement a few day’s before payday- not to mention- the spike in money has arguable come from the increase in demand for home shopping and unfortunately me and most of the home shoppers won’t be receiving any of it. I would also recommend that if anyone is looking for a job do no apply to work here!
