      Easy work, hard to climb the ladder - Customer Team Member Co-op Employee Review

      Pros

      Easy work, good pay (although not as much as Aldi/Lidl), I had a great manager

      Cons

      Although it might seem great to train up in different things, it's rare you can become a Team Leader and even rarer to progress further. I found myself doing the job of a team leader but without the extra pay whilst the team leaders slacked.

      Thankyou for your review. It's lovely to hear you enjoyed your time at our Co-op. I'm sorry to hear you felt like progression wasn't easy, I hope at the time you raised your concerns with your manager so you could both work on a progression development plan for your career and time at our Co-op. ^Catherine

      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
