Burberry Employee Reviews

I worked there as a catering assistant. The rules are too strict. Management wasn't very nice, other staff was very friendly and helpful. I left after 2 month working there.

Open and caring

Digital fraud analyst (Current Employee) - Leeds, West Yorkshire - 18 November 2023

I have never worked for a company that actually enforces their values in the culture of their employees behaviours and it is incredible to be part of it. The employee benefits are fantastic, would definitely recommend as a great place to work

Not bad for temp work

Warehouse Operative (Former Employee) - Blyth, Northumberland - 12 November 2023

Was an OK place to work seasonal. Quick to drop staff though. Everyone dreaded the tannoy at the end of the day. Lot of favouritism from a management level

Productive

The first few weeks seem promising

Sewing Machinist (Former Employee) - Castleford - 31 October 2023

As you can imagine , working at Burberry would be like a big thing to drop while out with friends. As great as it all seeks on paper, the environment doesn’t reflect it. There’s poor management on the production floor, you’re expected to work like a machine and the people aren’t the most inviting. If you’re looking for a job, it’s great but if you’re looking for a career… don’t go onto the production lines. You’ll never leave

Pros

Free fruit, coffee and teas

Cons

Short breaks, feel like being in a high-school full of bullies, bad management

Friendly and professional

RTR Accountant (Current Employee) - Leeds - 1 September 2023

This is a good place to work, friendly staff and managers support you whenever you need. Good work life balance as we are able to work from home. Pay isn’t fair.

Poor people management, underpaid

Customer Service Advisor (Former Employee) - London, Greater London - 31 March 2023

Not a great work environment, superficial and underpaid. They will expect you to work unpaid overtime. Tasks are repetitive and the role are highly bureaucratic.

Awful place

Receptionist/Administrator (Former Employee) - London, Greater London - 22 March 2023

Awful manager, poor pay and no job satisfaction. I would suggest looking elsewhere and not here. The company isn’t the same as it was and the manager is awful

Good place to work

Team Leader (Former Employee) - London, Greater London - 18 March 2023

Staff were very difficult, unfriendly to work with. The gentlemen who inspected items told me the are items are not returnable. Purchased a wallet and I went home and see scratch all over the purse. When I tried to exchange same purse they are not willing to exchange since it is used.The wallet is less than a week old. They sold with scratch.Worst company to deal with and staff was not friendly at all. They show new one in the store and packed with scratch on wallet and they are unable to exchange also. Don't deal with it

Bullying, Poor Leadership, Manipulative

Client Advisor (Former Employee) - London, Greater London - 19 May 2022

It is great meeting clients, showcasing the brand the history and merchandise. But the team themselves were very cliquey, un-supportive, manipulative, gossiping to managers and creating drama and false narratives for fun.
