SHENG SIONG SUPERMARKET Employee Reviews

Worked part-time for cash.Colleagues are helpful to a large extent.Job is pretty simple/brain-dead. Just do and go home.You may get colleagues who look down on you because you are a part-timer, be mentally prepared, but don't be too overly concerned about it as they are usually harmless. Just ignore them.

Salary and working environment

Cashier (Part-time) (Current Employee) - Pasir Ris - July 18, 2023

Weekdays and weekends salary are the same, No incentives and no weekends allowance too, not like other supermarkets that give different salary on weekends and some incentives.The red uniform people won’t be happy seeing long queue for payment.

Poor management of employees well being and welfare

Cashier (Part-time) (Former Employee) - Singapore - January 8, 2023

Sheng Siong management only employs Chinese and Vietnamese workers. Only Chinese speaking employees are employed.No/ Very Slow career advancement. Unfair treatment to employees. Long working hours less salary. Management will only side with customers despite customer’s fault as their motto is “Customers always right” even though it’s not employee’s fault.

Pros

No pros

Cons

Long hours, no lunch provided, unfair treatment

Ok if you're a student who just wants a job

Cashier (Former Employee) - Toa Payoh - December 3, 2021

Overall experience was ok. Learnt how operate the cashier machine. The people in my outlet are not so welcoming but I gotta get used to it. Though the pay is quite low and u need work 6 days per week, is kinda ok if u stay damm near to the supermarket and who jus want a job. Would not recommend if you're looking for a higher pay job.

Pros

free meals (and they give a lot!)

Cons

standing the whole time, work 8 hrs only 30mins break

Terrible workplace

Cashier (Former Employee) - Aljunied - November 6, 2020

Not a place for S’porean. Outlet is fully managed by the red uniforms that are mainly Malaysians and they run the outlet like their own father’s business, set their own rules to their convenience, they side and protect their own fellow countryman even they may be at fault, they can promote a totally unqualified person just bcos the person is a Malaysian, no ground for Singaporean at all.The supervisor has no leadership and totally unqualified, uneducated, biased, rude and unreasonable.PM shift starts at 3pm, supervisor will force staff to take dinner before 4pm and though break should be 45mins but supervisor expect staff to get back to work immediately after eating, cannot take full 45mins rest.

Pros

Zero

Cons

Long hours standing, no proper resting time, staff are forced to take early dinner which caused health issue in long run

Interaction conducive environment

Cashier (Former Employee) - Singapore - January 12, 2020

Quickly picked up being swift in managing queues and tackling obstacles while dealing with festive music being overplayed. Highly interactive with both colleagues and shoppers to brighten up the mood.

Friendly workplace

Sales Assistant part time (Former Employee) - Woodlands - September 2, 2019

This review was based on experience a couple of years back. A typical day would be replenishing of stocks from the storage area to the shelving. Other than that, answering of customer enquirers. Notably location of items. The management was very particular about punctuality.

Supporting family

Cashier (Part-time) (Former Employee) - Canberra - July 28, 2019

My colleagues there are very welcoming and they had taught me a lot when I first joined the company. It was a very fun experience to work with them. When I decided to leave, they were very supportive and they wished me all the best for my studies. I was really touched and this truly made me feel like I was part of this family.

Productive and engaging workplace

Retail Assistant (Former Employee) - Woodlands - May 8, 2018

Working there provides first-hand experience in dealing with consumers in-store and out. Customer demands and satisfaction has to be met in order for business to flourish and expand further, thus cooperation between departments is essential in order to achieve this primary goal. Organizing of goods and prioritizing customers' needs and wants are essential in fulfilling the roles of a retail assistant. THe role may seem and sound insignificant, however, it is due to these small roles that help to run the bigger picture in the business. From here, I have learnt how to deal with different types of customers, how to handle pressure, how to balance work and play, and I also built up my responsibility and communication skills.

Pros

good welfare

Nice workplace in general

Cashier (Former Employee) - Jurong East - January 12, 2018

Pretty tedious but if you want to put your peserverance to test, it's perfect for you Involves mild weightlifting lol. It's all abt eficiency, speed & accuracy. If you're a M, rest assure rude customers are gonna give you a good time here. Alright but honestly, I came to enjoy my time there. You just have to get used to it and go find your own style of cashiering. It may not be a very glorified or clean job, but ya'll should join for the good comissions and the fruitful, worth it experience. Hey disclaimer though, extreme introverts please don't do this and torture yourself. Unless you want to step out of your comfort zone good luck!

Pros

Free lunches, $900 contract completion, $80 commission

Cons

Long hours
