Pros

Other co workers were all lovely people with great work ethic - that is the only pro

Cons

Too many to name. Every negative review I’ve read is spot on. Want to be treated like dirt by the owner? Want to be watched on cameras all day long? Want to be spoken to like a child in the most condescending manner ever? Well look no more! Footmaster is the place for you! I have never worked for someone so disrespectful. To think, the amount of beautiful people I know who now struggle mentally after working for this person? It’s upsetting. Like the other negative reviews say; rosters the day before if at all, superannuation either not paid or paid extremely late, nothing provided when asked especially when it’s legally required to be provided... Not to mention the quality of the stock that is being sold, half of it has been stored for 10+ years and disintegrates as soon as you start to wear it. A customer asks for a refund and you have no leg to stand on but look stupid and explain that our policy says we don’t have to. The list could go on and on but to sum it up I do not miss Footmaster and I highly recommend no one ever works there unless there is a change of ownership!

Pros

Coworkers were so lovely. A shame that was the only good part of the job. I understand you don’t have to love your job, but this was something else.

Cons

Where do I even start?? Owner is incredibly arrogant and rude! - and he knows it too. He has no care in the world of who you are and what you do. All he wants you to do is SELL. But tell me, how is that possible when no proper training is given to staff on why the shoes are worth selling? He rips off designs and claim the as his own. Makes them so cheap, they break after 2 wears. I can’t even begin to count the amount of people who come back requesting for a refund/exchange for their shoes (the policy doesn’t exist within the company BY THE WAY) because they’re shoes have fallen apart. How am I supposed to tell an elderly person (the target audience of the company) that what they want isn’t possible. Couldn’t tell you the amount of guilt I felt selling $200+ shoes that shouldn’t even be called shoes to people. Don’t even get me started on the delayed pays, last minute rosters, lack of superannuation (which I have only received since leaving the company so he wouldn’t receive a lawsuit). I MEAN COME ON! He asks his employees to write reviews on here to up the star rating. Is he that blind? What will make him realise that HE is the problem. NOT HIS STAFF. So stop treating them like they are!
