B&M Retail reviews

It all starts off fine, they reward your hard work for a few months and then once you're all settled in, the rot starts. Logistics are a joke, unsuitable properties used as stores, happy to spend countless millions of pounds on a massive purpose-built distribution warehouse but retain a fleet of aging ex-Woolworths wagons driven by agency staff who don't speak a word of English and can't read a map. Your delivery could turn up at literally any time of day, and when it does, don't expect it to be in state worth selling. Waste management is off-the-scale, so much stock gets damaged before it even arrives, don't even get me started on the perishable goods, stock rotation non-existant, multiple product recalls every week. Company couldn't give two hoots about stores that have been open for longer than a year, all focus goes to new stores to keep up the shiny impression, reality is that 99% of their stores are falling apart and in disrepair. Quite a few are not fit for purpose with multiple health hazards (asbestos, etc), and generally not safe to work in. The management structure down to store management level is a complete joke, complete lack of communication on a daily basis, conflicts of interest, mixed messages, personal agendas run high. Middle management (supervisors, etc) often caught in the middle and turn into backstabbing, two-faced creatures who will say and do anything to justify their meaningless position in day-to-day operations.

Almost everything pay if its correct you are lucky,hours have gone down since starting here in November last up to xmas was great but after xmas hours went down the management say because the takings have gone down.the management are always back biting and behind our backs slagging us staff off when things go wrong which is a lot of the time its always the staff at fault ..never management..when things or stock goes missing stock control here is a joke , for shoplifters its heaven. but its never the fault of the managment maybe profit protection should look at the manager of the store.
