- A wide range of responsibilities: for example, the seller-cashier has to lay out the goods, clean the trading floor, attach and update price tags, take out items from the warehouse.
- A big load on the seller - requires endurance, physical strength, good health.
- Not the highest salary - in the presence of all the aforementioned obligations, the cashier receives no more than 40 thousand rubles a month.
- The main contingent of workers is migrants from neighboring countries.
- Often employees expose expired goods at a free lunch.
- Strict system of administrative penalties: if the seller missed an expired product, he is punished by a fine.
- Living conditions in service dormitories leave much to be desired: uncomfortable rooms, parasites (bugs, lice), interruptions in hot water.
- Staff turnover.
- Deficiencies are covered by sellers.
- In stores, there is a real threat of theft and assault (especially during night shifts).
Trading network "Magnolia" is distributed in Moscow. Attracts buyers with regular profitable promotions, products of its own production. Offers good conditions for job seekers. However, the attitude towards Magnolia, both employees and customers, can hardly be called uniquely positive.
