  • I hope during the "lavish party", they hired both male and female strippers and put on an exhibition to give the employees a good laugh.
    Wish I had been invited!!
    You may question anything I say. Just be polite, otherwise you go straight on to my Ignore List, which funds a good old fashioned knees-up every Xmas. Cheers;)
  • Thanks OP, you ve taken a bit of a slating on here for some reason, I hope you wont be put off and maybe come back with some proper insider stuff with more interest than the traditional office splurge. I work for G4S, the largest employer in the country, in the FTSE top 100 and also one of the tightest. We reckon they spent no more than £7 a head on our "xmas buffet " and our bottle of cheap as chips wine

    I am utterly disgusted at what I saw tonight while many people are struggling to keep warm.

    British Gas laid on a Lavish party for 700 employees amid tight secrecy last night at Zulu Sundance, the Athena venue in Leicester.

    This featured coaches for guests, canap! reception, 3 course meal with wine thrown in, a full show featuring dancers, acrobats and aerial artists, plus DJ and disco until 1am.

    I have no idea of the cost but it would have been a packet and would put the recently reported Altern Towers scandle in the shadows. Thier website state that tickets for the public nights are £36 a head so times that by 700 plus the wine and that's how much British Gas laid out.

    All of us employees are banned from even mentioning it to anyone and social media is a HUGE HUGE no no.

    Tonight was wrong, just wrong when so much money is being made from other people's misery, makes me sick.


    Another disgruntled employee.... did you not get invited??? aww diddummmsss

    In all Seriousness as posted above, all employees work hard for whoever they work for.... a once a year christmas bash is good for employee engagement, its also good for moral, a night to say well done for the hard work enjoy it.

    Again £36 a head is cheap, id rather have an xmas bonus of £200.
    Promo codes are never always cheaper..... isnt that right EuropCar?
