Best job on the planet

Pros

Extremely good wage, good team of people, work on your own at your own pace, loads of opportunities to make extra money and over time etc, a lot of support and all tools and equipment provided, know your entire rota for the year, all the days your working, hours and days off giving you plenty of chance to plan holidays etc, can swap shifts with colleagues etc if need be

Cons

Long hours sometimes but you get used to it and it’s not half as bad as you think

Thanks so much for the review, “best job on the planet” is high praise and we love to hear it! It’s great that you’re enjoying the flexibility, the team, and all the extra earning opportunities. We hear you on the long hours- it's just part of being in a demand-led business like RAC. It’s something we keep an eye on, and we’re glad to hear it’s manageable once you settle in. Thanks for everything you do!

Pros

- Supportive, collaborative people with a strong team culture - Real opportunities for career growth and internal mobility - Part of a successful, fast-paced business where you can drive change - Culture of continuous improvement driven from the top - Highly visible and accessible executive team - Weekly CEO-led company-wide meetings open for Q&A and feedback

Cons

Benefits package is below market standard: e.g. Pensionable salary capped at basic rate band, not full base pay as provided by other employers; Enhanced maternity pay limited to 3 months (vs. 5–6 months elsewhere); Christmas party budget of £20pp is too low to be meaningful

Pros

Fast paced work environment with varying work, but a manageable workload. Supportive management who take the time to ensure you understand the business and the tasks you've been assigned. Friendly staff and working environment. Great work-life balance with proper hybrid working between office and home.

Cons

Nothing major, just the pension scheme uses qualifying earnings as the contribution basis meaning your employer contributions are effectively capped if you earn above this rate.
