Doesn't RecommendNegative OutlookNo Opinion of CEOI worked at Caffè Nero full-time for more than 5 years
Pros
Good people Free Coffee Social events
Cons
Hard to fit into such a small space. Long hours and obscene targets to hit weekly. Expectations on wastage, labour and sales do not coincide with each other. Smaller stores only have 2 people working on shift, as soon as 1 of them takes a break the other is fending for themselves. Once questioned a regional manager about this who's response was to pick a better time to have a break. That's not possible. If you're a part time student who needs some pocket money, this will fit the bill. If it's a full time career you want, anything below area manager isn't worth it. Total disregard for the front line workers who keep the stores operating.

Pros
The co-workers in stores are fun and chatty I love the team I'm in.
Cons
Long hours as our store is open till 10pm. Store cleanliness is lacking because we barely get time to clean as much as it needs because of only having 2 staff on at a time.
