silverknight Posted September 10, 2006 Share Posted September 10, 2006 Just to balance the topic.... All companies have good and bad points...it all depends on your values and what reward you want for a fair days work... Company of the Year 2006 Marks & Spencer have become the first company ever to win this coveted award twice, having won it back in 2004. The award is given to the company deemed to do business in the most responsible way. Stuart Rose, who accepted the Company of the Year award on behalf of M&S said: “This is a fantastic endorsement of the way we do business. At M&S, we take enormous pride in our commitment to working ethically and responsibly, and to making a positive impact on the communities in which we do business. My congratulations go to every person in the company – we should all be very proud to receive this award for a second time.” Marks & Spencer also won two further awards that recognised their outstanding achievements in providing employment opportunities for disadvantaged groups and making a real difference to a major social issue. BiTC Employability Award – Marks & Start This award is given to the company that has done most to promote employment opportunities for disadvantaged groups, M&S have won the award for their ground-breaking Marks & Start programme. Every year, through Marks & Start, M&S offers work placements to 600 adults who would normally face barriers to employment, for example through homelessness or disability. They also offer placements to 2,500 school children and first generation university students. Currently 40% of their adult programme participants go on to get permanent employment – that’s twice the rate of similar Government schemes. The choice is yours....

totley_girl Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 don't there payment system is rubbish. They pay you a months wage in advance and if you leave and you've taken more holiday than your entitled then you end up paying them a fortune back. I paid £300 back to them!
