Terrible company

Pros

Do not work for B&M. Terrible company. Expect you to work 6am after attending alarm call out at 2am. Also worked 6pm-1pm the next day - how can they get away with that! Area manager expects you to be available 24/7. No work life balance. No supports. Expected to do everything with no staff. Terrible pay. Spoke to other managers at stock takes no one likes being there they all hate it. Do not join.

Cons

Everything is a con NO PROS

Pros

Staff discount, good staff but struggle to think of anything else.

Cons

Stores are scored by store managers taking pictures of your store. Always inconsistent and depends on who visits you. Payroll to get the job done is unrealistic. Area managers and regional managers are scared to challenge anything higher up for fear of any repercussion. Horrible place to work. Advice to anyone looking for a managerial job in retail. Stay away from B & M. You will regret it if you don’t
