Best employee benefits by far

Pros

Excellent benefits, very generous maternity pay and bonus scheme. Share options & subsidised lunches. Good progression if you want it, low staff turnover

Cons

Many layers of management - this can be unnecessary & obstructive to the progression of others. Sometime you can feel like just a number and not a valued employee making a difference

Pros

Among the best things about working for BP is its inclusive nature. I had two spells with the company and came back because I had such a great time working there in the first spell. BP gave me lots of opportunities to shine. It allows you to make your job as big or as small as you want. It also allows you a lot of flexibility in time management, task management. It encourages skip level dialogues and drives excellence in what you do.

Cons

Process, the process is god and it seems to the be the proverbial tail.

Pros

Plenty of overtime, even on a contract with few hours 50% discount on lunch, 15% discount otherwise Close to home Can progress in the company very quickly Possibility of owning BP shares through your paycheck Monthly online surveys that give shopping vouchers

Cons

Can be asked to work long shifts - as long as 14 hours & constantly being phoned to come in on your days off High labour turnover A terrible company culture - a very catty atmosphere Little to no assistance from duty/deputy/store managers when you are on the management progression scheme Lots of health & safety laws to abide by (eg; for fuels, cooking food, etc) Low pay in comparison to other retailers
