Bm-Catalysts

Working for BM Catalysts is all about team work 90% of the time. You have to work close with others and work not just as a team but as a unit. Management are friendly but some times you can get the feeling that they have little knowledge in the job that you are doing as they have been brought in from out side the company and from different backgrounds. You may all so find that no management have worked there way up ladder to progress to there position with in the company. The hardest part of the job is knowing that no matter how skilled you can be at your job there is no room to progress though out the company. There is all so very little respect for the employees of the company, so after 6 years with the company i now feel it is time for me to move on and find some thing else were i can be faced with new and exciting challengers.

When youre upstairs youre not allowed to talk. Not Even about work. As soon as you open your mouth you get told to shut up and just get on with work. People like to show off infront of management. If your computer stops working for something out of your control YOU get the blame for it. This job destroyed my mental health and no choice but to walk out. Agreed to have a meeting with HR before i left and told them exactly what i thought about the company and how its being run. Although some of the lads are a laugh and you can get along with them there are a few that you cant because theyre focused on brown nosing.


The nature of the work can be demanding at times but it is a good company to work for.  Managers are fair and there are opportunities to take on extra responsibility and in my experience you are rewarded for doing that.  There are lots of people who have worked at the company for a long time who are happy to answer questions/help out newer colleagues.
The workplace culture has improved a lot in recent years and it feels like they are trying to make positive changes to hours of work/rotas to support staff manage their work/life balance.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Easygoing and a laid back working environment.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Rubbish pay. Blatant favouritism. If jobs start to dry up, there isn't enough work for you to hit your bonus unless you're a brown noser.  Awful jigs and the company really cheaps out on PPE.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Normally  a day would start by acquiring any consumables you may need for the day before jumping straight into your welding bay, working through a run of parts until complete.

Good company to work for that are always taking steps to improve the working environment with good job security.
Pay is better nowadays  and the monthly attendance bonus is a nice touch if you're lucky enough to be drawn out.
I would definitely recommend this job to other people which is something I wouldn't have said 5-6 years ago.

Feel very secure having a steady job with guaranteed hours in a company that is operating and growing despite the difficult economic situation in the UK and in the global market. 

People are very friendly and approachable. Feel like part of the team. They make an effort to help and accommodate when one has an issue.



You will get on ok if your face fits and you toe the line. No career progression. Very poor senior management, profit over people attitude. Friendly enough staff. Company doesn't contribute to any social activities (e.g. Christmas party). They do provide free tea and coffee.
Hardest part of the job is dealing with vague objectives and no constructive feedback, not made to feel valued.


The very senior management are not respectful of shop floor staff members. A comment was made regarding a certain family which prompted me to leave. The rest of the team are great and I did enjoy my time there but I cannot work for a company with such outdated, rude and snobbish ideas on people's worth and progression.

What is the best part of working at the company?
The hours and no weekends.....

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The supervisor who had no idea how to speak to anyone properly 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Laid back  and easy going......

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Sometimes when fast other day extremely slow

The office staff at BM Catalysts are all really friendly. Everyone is willing to help you, if you ask. They have charity events, Christmas parties, annual pay reviews and bonuses (if you perform well throughout the year).
There are a wide range of tasks that can be done, so every day is different. Lots of training is provided (all on site). They have a free car park and it's easy to get to
