Pros

A company that was born international. The scope and exposure to people and projects from around the world gives so much diverse experience. This is the type of business if you are ambitious, passionate and happy to get stuck in, then career progression will happen for you. They encourage, reward and celebrate great results.

Cons

It is a really big company, so when changes are needed to happen at a global level, the process can take a bit of time. Lots of people involved and to manage.

Pros

Working alone. I luckily have a great direct manager. Decent benefits.

Cons

Where do I start. Company is more concerned with being “woke” than they are about the morale of all of the employees. If you lie and cheat or are a minority you get promoted! Those of us in the field are run ragged while being paid Pennie’s compared to similar companies. Doing so much driving, those of us in the field get smaller company vehicles that get very uncomfortable while those higher up that do a lot less driving get full size vehicles. I get home daily with my back hurting due to the vehicles. Yet we are charged the same money monthly for the smaller vehicles that those pay for the larger vehicles. The job security is a thing of the past. Layoffs for the past 2 years so you work day to day wondering if you will have a job next week,month, year, etc…… Luckily I have a good Division manager or I would have been gone long ago. With that being said, I am currently looking to leave the company. Because with all of the layoffs, there’s no more opportunities to promote because there aren’t any positions open. Save your time and stress and work somewhere else!

Pros

Company Car, Sick Days, 401K

Cons

Job security. Everyone I know that works for BAT is petrified that they will wake up and be told they have been cut Culture is BAD! They only care about their investors! Payscale is exponentially lower than the industry scale The workload is unattainable. Unless you work 12-hour days every day there is no way to even come close to meeting the company's expectations Bad internal communication, which causes TM's to get yelled at on a daily basis by frustrated retailers. The bonus is based on inaccurate reports and their ever-changing metric scale. Unethical to their employees and their retailers. They are constantly taking things away and adding more hoops to jump through.
