Avoca is a nice place to work, co workers and management are friendly. Overall a relaxed environment. Free coffee and food.

Horrible pay, great colleagues

Pros

The work itself day to day is enjoyable.

Cons

Originally, staff were allowed to take home food that was going to be thrown into the bin. During my last few months, a policy was brought in that staff had to pay €2 to take home food that would otherwise be THROWN IN A BIN. Getting staff to pay for food while reducing their cost of bins? Aramark at its finest. Almost no room for growth.
