Recommendations & Advice

Would you recommend The Co-op to a friend?
Yes
Why?
CO-OP is a good company.
What tips or advice would you give to others applying to The Co-op?
It's only good for part timers and people who don't have goals to progress as there is a lot of favouritism in the region where I worked. There are less opportunities to progress as a store manager as company changes the way of operating.
