Balfour Beatty Benefits

25 days holiday, option to buy more holiday, bonus dependent on company performance, regular pay review, company car scheme or cash allowance. Flexible benefits scheme also exists

Decent benefits however could be better

The best thing about Balfour Beatty is the people. The work life is very enjoyable and low in stress. The company is well resourced and nobody there is over worked. The worst thing is the industry that the company is in, management of construction contracts. The work is boring and not at all interesting.

Good pension and transport allowance for business cars

Company car, health care, buy extra holidays, standard holidays,

The standard package of benefits are as expected of a company of Balfour Beatty's standard. Pension, health insurance etc. Very good but not exceptional. Understandably, the real perks of summer balls, sailing and ski trips faded with the recession.

good work home balance and benefits uncertainty with regards to long term contracts and work loads sometimes

Pros: holidays are decent and pension is alright. You can get flexible benefits which you pay for through salary deduction. Cons: if you work in employee services you get very little other benefits. Family friendly leave (paternity, maternity) is behind the times.

Standard corporate benefits. Nothing is a "perk" though, any positives are deductibles.
