Bidfood bloemfontein
In my experience, poor management is the defining feature of this workplace. Many of the colleagues come across as extremely pretentious, and the general manager seems determined to lead by example. In public, he plays the role of the perfect GM, constantly praising the branch as though it’s flawless. Behind the scenes, however, the reality is far less impressive. I personally witnessed staff being shouted at, spoken to in a degrading way, and criticised on a very personal level rather than in any constructive or professional manner. Even interviews felt inappropriate, with questions that strayed well beyond what should ever be asked in a workplace setting. The overall environment came across as ********* and deeply unprofessional. Some members of management (not all) appeared to believe they were untouchable, while employee rights were treated as optional extras. For example, teller sellers were, in my experience, discouraged from taking proper lunch breaks—something that even seemed to contradict the company’s own code of conduct. I would absolutely not recommend working here. My time at this branch was miserable, and the constant staff turnover speaks for itself. Honestly, if this is what passes for leadership, it’s surprising the place is still operating the way it is.

Bidfood poor service Bloemfontein
Called to find out what time their sales desk is closing and was told at 16h00. I arrived at 15h45 just to be advised that they have already closed. I drove from the south of Bloemfontein to where they are situated in the north. I told them that I called to make sure about the closing time but they refused to help me.

Am just not happy with your dishonest delivery team
I work at Amber luxury Venue as Executive Chef, last Friday I got a delivery around 9:20am when I receive the order all my invoice were ticked off as far as am concerned I was the only one who is allowed to tick the invoices to check everything is there and sign. Now let me tell what's ****ed me off, they came with all the orders they say, and I asked them to not leave without me checking everything is here and guess what the was a lot missing when I asked the delivery man where is the rest of the groceries because am missing a lot here and he said I took out everything, then I showed him what's missing then he went back to the truck and came back with all the missing groceries, I asked him when you said to me you are done offloading what was that all about, he couldn't answer. If I didn't go through that invoice they were not gonna say anything, and that's *****ing and I was gonna lose my job. I was ****ed off the whole day. I still need answers.
