Pros

Pay is always increasing and brought back some benefits

Cons

Still not at the same rate as some of the supermarket competitors. Poor pay slips and pay system very complicated - leading to some under payments

Thankyou for your review. It's nice to hear that you enjoyed your time at our Co-op. I'm concerned to hear that your manager did not attend work while you were there, I hope that you flagged this when you were in the role s this could be looked into. All team members should be working their contracted hours. ^Catherine
