Management issues
Customer Service Advisor (Current Employee) – Glasgow – 17 October 2019
I currently work for b&m i would say it is very fast paced and u are always busy. If ur not on till you and on shop floor, putting out stock, getting things for customers, taking calls. I feel management always have something negative to say, always talking about or mocking staff members. Putting staff down infront of other staff, and also customer. I feel they only want stock out and u cant chat to customers even though they are being friendly u feel as thought you are being watched.
productive and hard working environment.
Cashier (Former Employee) – Ellesmere Port – 17 October 2019
A typical day atwork would entail working from start to finish at maximum energy with no rrom for slack, I learned how to use a till and how to improve my customer service skills when dealing with customers who had issues they needed fixing within store. The hardest part of the job was wrking during the christmas ush, but during this time i learnt how to stay on task and stay posistive during long shifts that culd induce a lot of stress. The most enjoyable part of my job was meeting customers as a large majority of the time they were intriguing and had stories that could turn the day around.
Okay
Shop Assistant (Current Employee) – Birmingham – 17 October 2019
Personally I just didn’t enjoy myself working there as it was something new I was trying because in the past I have done the complete opposite for work such as manual labour jobs which is what I enjoy. Overall decent company depending on what you enjoy and what it is you want to do
Horrendous
Customer Assistant - Part Time (Former Employee) – Whaley Bridge – 16 October 2019
Hated my time working here, management were terrible, pay was terrible, staff were rude, the job its self was terrible. Honestly don't have a good word to say about working here. Worked 8 hours a week on £6 an hour, and got tret like some sort of slave, like we owed then something.

I am going to miss my work at Liskeard B&M store!
Customer service supervisor (Former Employee) – Liskeard – 12 October 2019
The team is great and the Store Manager is a person for example!
I have managed to learn so much there, I had the opportunity to be trained in everything I wanted to. I was given a chance to grow up on the ladder and I am very thankful for that.
This is the place for you!
Don't miss the opportunity to apply!

Customer Service Assistant (Former Employee) – Margate, Kent – 11 October 2019
poor selection of management, dependant on members of staff could be a laugh at times, poor discounts, uneducated members of staff barring a few, shop fitting always a laugh but never worth your while
Warehouse Operative
Warehouse Operative (Former Employee) – Blackpool – 10 October 2019
B&M dispite popular belief is a good place to work, if you have go in you and willing to put in the work to move up all the opportunities are there, a fast pacing work place with great managers that care.
The operations manager of Blackpool and Knowsley Vinny is a good manager that cares and will do anything to get you moved up in the company all you have to do is put in the work and show him that you deserve the opportunity.
Minimum wage to start (but were isn't) but can earn more money with a good bonus scheme and pay rises with experience.

Replenishment Supervisor (Former Employee) – Lincoln, Lincolnshire – 10 October 2019
This is the worst place I have ever worked. The working culture within this company is disgraceful. Everybody is disposable. Management simply do not care. You are literally told that you are nothing but a number. Wages are awful, thats even if they remember to pay you right. Avoid like the plague.
Pros
None
Cons
Everything
Horrible Bosses

Retail/Warehouse Assistant (Former Employee) – Holyhead – 8 October 2019
My own experience was fine for 3 odd years but my last year or so there was terrible, I cannot discuss the ins and outs of what happened but I can say the CAB said my treatment amounted to "Harassment".
