BPS provide a good gym allowance.
Great if you are looking to get an industry-recognised qualification and some fluffy summer/Christmas parties. Aside from that, the salaries are way below the market rate and pay rises are heavily based on targets, this is very black and white with little room for manoeuvre. A lot of the staff feel it should also be based on general contributions to the company and length of service. Commission scheme is pretty much non-existent and has changed more times than I care to admit, each time worsening the employee's takehome. Claims of flexible working where possible and it seems that the possibilities are extremely low, unless you are in the Senior Management team . General benefits like eyecare and cycle to work scheme are offered however, they also count free fruit, tea and coffee as a 'benefit'. A telephone counselling service was offered however, HR would repeatedly ask in private if you had used this in order to understand if it was effective (most likely pertaining to cost), for the business. It made the service seem like more of a front to show care for mental health as opposed to an actual caring for the mental health of their employees.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, we always encourage feedback from current and past employees. As a Sunday Times Top 100 Company, our salaries, commissions and benefits have all been verified and approved in line with the market rate. We also have many examples of employees who enjoy the flexible working environment we offer. We take the mental health of our employees very seriously and in addition to the Employee Assist Programme, a 24-hour confidential free phone service, we also regularly monitor our engagement levels through Monthly Action Plans, Personal Development Plans and monthly “Happiness” surveys. Once again, thanks for your candid feedback. If you’d like to discuss further, please feel free to get in touch with us at: people@bps-world.com
As ann apprentice it is shocking, to put all the work and effort in only to be rewarded with a tiny salary and little access to the benifits.
The free gym membership is great - The phone contribution is very good as well. The pension contribution could be improved.
Helpful with Gym membership as there is a gym 2 minute walk away. Wish there was more of a focus on benefits however

Thank you for writing a review. Unfortunately it appears we have not communicated clearly enough the range of benefits available to our employees which include childcare vouchers, eye tests and pension schemes. Your comments have been forward to our People and Culture department so that we can improve on the way we inform people of the benefits applicable to them.
the best thing about the benefits package is the gym membership, they cover you up to £50 per month which is great!
