Thankyou for your feedback. I'm sorry to hear you wouldn't recommend the Co-op to others despite enjoying the work life balance and holidays you receive. I hope you flagged the issues you had with your management at the time so that these could be looked into and resolved. ^Catherine

Pros

Flexible working including working from home when possible

Cons

Hot seeking proves difficult unless you're there early. Poor management skills, not pushed enough to develop, not being informed correctly at interview leading to alternative employment being sought after 11 weeks
