Co-op reviews

Unreasonable sickness and absence policy (3 missed work days or illnesses over a year and you have to have a disaplinary hearing, EVEN if you had to miss work for family emergencies or operations) Not very easy to get in contact with HR if you have a problem with a manager or another member of staff etc Unsociable hours (sometimes from 5am to 3pm or awkward hours like 1:30pm to 11pm so I personally found I had no life outside work and if I did I was always tired or always waiting around to go to work) Each supervisor and manager has a different way of doing things (so you're told to do something one specific way when one duty manager is in and then told to do it a completely different way when another one is in) Not much communication between area managers and store managers (so you're told to do different things by each of them) If you do something wrong some managers can be very quick to report you however when they make the same mistakes it is ALWAYS just brushed under the carpet High expectations for staff yet managers seem to get away with doing nothing (eg sitting in the office talking, laughing and eating with other managers whilst the rest of us are working really hard to get everything done before close)
