Store manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

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

Pros

Double discount every now and then

Cons

You rarely see or speak to senior management, the cctv system is outdated and could use a major upgrade your having to rely on old software. There's no safety within the company

WORST WORKPLACE IN HISTORY!

Replenishment manager

Business Outlook

Pros

Leaving at the end of your shift.

Cons

Zero training for role. Toxic employees. Employees not knowing their roles. Employees not working. Constant over supply of goods resulting in a large backlog of pallets, making food go out of date even before it gets to the shop floor. Members of management with holding information from other employees to appear better than they are. Temp staff that do nothing. Genuinely worst place I've ever worked, some very vindictive employees in there who manipulate and lie to get what they want (floor manager). Worked this out literally within first week and that combined with a multitude of issues made me leave within 2 months. Learnt hardly anything within these two months. Incorrect shifts every week.
