Great job, Terrible management
Front of house and switchboard operator (Former Employee), Park Lane – April 4, 2013
Pros: helped me to improve my admin skills
Cons: bad management
Diary management, Organizing meetings, meeting and greeting customers and VIPs, dealing with high volume of calls, liaising with with sales executives. dealing with complaints and having a wide knowledge of the business and the main corporate objectives.

Hardest part of the job was lack of job security.

Most enjoyable part of the job was providing – more... 5* customer service to a wide range of customers – less

Terrible
service advisor (Former Employee), teesside – December 28, 2012
Pros: occassionally get to drive nice cars
Cons: long hours, no lunches as too busy, stressful, poor management
The most stressful job, with nothing to show for it. No support from management with anything. If you take an hour for your lunch (what youre entitled to...) you get treated like a criminal.
No training provided, you just get sat down and made to get on with it. If you make mistakes youre punished and given warnings, no development plan put in place.

Not so good.
BMW Mississauga (Former Employee), Mississauga, ON – May 14, 2013
Pros: got to look at nice cars
Cons: didn't get to work on said nice cars
This job was not so enjoyable for me only because i found myself standing around alot of the time watching, instead of learning hands on and actually doing work. I can understand where they were coming from though. Cars are expensive.

GOOD PLACE TO WORK AT
ASSOCIATE PROCESS SUPPORTER (Current Employee), ROSSLYN GAUTENG – May 13, 2013
Pros: quarterly bonuses
Cons: working on weekends
I CLOCK IN AT 5:30 TO START WORK AT 6:10, WE HOLD LITTLE MEETINGS BEFORE THE START OF THE SHIFT FROM 6 TO 6:10. TEA BREAK IS AT 9:15 AND LUNCH AT 12:30, THEN I KNOCK OFF AT 2:10.
I HAVE LEARNED THAT HARD WORK PAYS, AND THAT WE ALWAY HAVE TO DO IT RIGHT THE FIRST TIME.
I LOVE WORKING WITH MY TEAM AS I BELIEVE TWO HEADS ARE BETTER THAN ONE.
THE HARDEST – more... PART OF THE JOD IS WORKING ON SUNDAYS.
THE MOST ENJOYABLE PART OF THE JOB IS MEETING OUR DAILY TARGETS, IT ALWAYS GIVES ME GREAT PLEASURE. – less

Forklift Operator MAU (Former Employee), Greer, SC – April 20, 2013
Pros: great pay, good hours, good perks, and bonus.
Cons: having to go through mau.
working at BMW third shift was very enjoyable,but because you had to go throughMAU/Workforce Solutions was a real let down because they set what i feel are unfair point systems.you are allowd 3 points a year and if you reach them your automatically dishcharged no matter how good of an employee you are. for example i had been working at BMW for over – more... 7 months, was a great emplyee who was never late,worked overtime everyday without complainig 13 hour nights. then i got the stomach virus and missed 1 day (first point) two weeks later t turned into the flu and i missed 2 days in a row ( oints 2&3) came back worked two weeks then one night after working all night i was called down to the MAU offices at BMW and was told i was getting dishcharged due to the point system.and to make me feel even worse they told me they were sorry because i was one of the best workers the had in my designated area. but overall i would of been very happy working at BMW. – less
