Pros

Had a lovely manager, helpful and nice

Cons

Bullying culture and renaming character building as a way to cover it up If you have a disability, don't think it's acceptable. I cannot recommend the coop as a workplace. You are also given a maximum hour contract of 39 hours a week with a minimum of 16, you will be given on average 30 hours a week whether you like it or not

Thank you for your review and feedback. Co-op has a zero tolerance approach to any form of bullying, discrimination, or harassment. If you witnessed or experienced bullying, we hope that you reported it at the time. If you believe that there is something we should look into further, then please use the former colleague contact form at colleagues.coop.co.uk/contacts

Pros

Team got on well, hours weren't particularly harsh (pay not particularly impressive either)

Cons

Overworked due to corporate ruthlessly cutting hours (while hiring more staff?), generally piling on more and more work to the store team without considering time constraints, absolutely no opportunity for advancement while a store manager is already there
