Pros

Nice people, nice office, Supermarket and post office at Angel Square Located in City Centre

Cons

Low salary No Talent mng/ Strategy ( all they do is performance appraisal) Poor HR function Too much work Not enough people as many left during numerate Restructurings Pressure on the business functions is high which means IT gets the stick all the time. Good IT projects go to contractors, permanent staff is left with small crappy projects.... Male dominated environment Male colleagues keep commenting on lady's shoes !!!!

Pros

Developed a great sense of community with the shop team, loved the community fundraising etc. which The Co-Operative does a lot of the time.

Cons

Long periods of time spent on one's feet and the occasional rude customer were cons to this position, but overall my experience was vastly positive
