Pros

Made some great friends, we all trauma bond together. Don't fooled by the fake 5 star reviews they write / make their employees write that have no cons to comment which is Just gastly.

Cons

Where do I start.... this place is extremely toxic, nobody stays there long, unless you cant find a job else where. - People keep there mouth shut because they like having a job, but if the they start disliking you, you will most likely be fired asap. - I watched few girls get fired on the same day. plus many throughout the year. - Never felt appreciated and an extremely unethical business with questionable practices - They've been sued before for unfair dismissal claims. - You have to clock in & out like a sweat shop and your 2 x 10min breaks are counted as toilet and water breaks which is insane. - I've haven't seen anyone work there for over 2 years unless you are a manager. - They have no work culture, but keep going on about how great their work culture is... 11 hour days with only 30min break is not culture. -They pay the bare minimum. -Revolving door of employees, the meeting room gets a work out from all the employees they yell at and fire in there. -They dont want to hire a HR person because they are not nice people & they know it - The micromanagement is insane - You feel so uneasy at this job, because you could get fired at any moment - They have gone through 6 designers in the same year because they say they are unreliable designers but in actual fact it is because they make them do 80 hours of work in 38hours - They fire you then hire a new person with no experience for the same position so they can pay them pennies Honestly the list goes on, i can be here all day.. I wouldn't waste your time here, trust me its not worth it.

Pros

Honestly loved working at VRG, my role was fulfilling and I personally liked management. Also found the all women office culture really wonderful.

Cons

Others' experience with management was considerably less favourable, with many leaving quite traumatised by how situations were often handled. One particular manager did not treat staff well and it was condoned by the owners.

Pros

Working at the distribution centre has been an incredibly positive and rewarding experience. The leadership fosters a culture of trust, collaboration, and respect. The team is genuinely supportive, celebrating both personal and professional milestones, and there’s a strong emphasis on growth and learning. The workplace strikes the perfect balance between productivity and well-being, offering flexibility, open communication, and a sense of belonging that makes every day enjoyable. I feel proud to work here and am motivated to contribute everyday. Extra bonus - the clothes are beautiful and now my wardrobe is effortless and awesome.

Cons

The role can also be physically demanding at times, which may be challenging for those not used to an active work environment. The bar for performance is set high, which can be challenging but rewarding.
