- Former Employee, more than 3 years★★★★★
Pros
I had a great manager and loved the field staff. Manager was always willing to teach me as much as possible which ultimately proved valuable in my career growth after leaving B&M.
Cons
Sexism rampant Racism rampant Although my manager was always pushing for me to be promoted, it was never considered after 4 years of work. Promotion was only offered once I was leaving. Reason being that those in charge of promotions have no connection to the person on a day to day. Also, being a quiet female in a loud construction site, I was never taken seriously although I was more than capable at my job and a valuable asset to the whole team.
