Thank you for sharing your feedback. We're pleased to hear that you find the working environment relaxed and flexible. At Co-op we believe that climbing the career ladder is different for everyone and sometimes that means sideways moves into different business areas. Please talk to your manager about your career aims and aspirations, there may be something more for you.
