Pros

Pays decent, workload isn't too bad unless you're just incredibly lazy. Work life balance is easy.

Cons

Career progression is pretty minimal unless you want to stay in retail your whole life. Benefits are pretty non-existent too especially since they got rid of double discount and staff discount on Co-Op member deals.

Thank you for taking the time to submit a review. We're sorry that you feel this way. In April, we made the difficult decision to stop offering our double discount payday events to help bring our discount benefit to an affordable level. As a result we are able to continue offering our market leading 30% colleague member discount all year round. We are monitoring this and reintroduce double discounts at key seasonal events, our first one being in August.

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
