Pros

Coworkers can be nice, and friendly.

Cons

Accused me of calling someone Phil racist when I was written up for perfumes that quite literally were my hair product. There is barely any black haircare products in corvallis let alone at the co-op. Accused me and then asked if I was working my shift. They also don’t pay you enough to afford the food and target college students.

Pros

Wonderful place with wonderful people. Good management, decent benefits, and an employee discount.

Cons

Hard to make a living there, but that feels more like a product of the current economic state of our country than a huge fault of the co-op. Some departments have a pretty high turnover rate, but I think the number one culprit of that is that they hire quite a few college students.

Pros

It waz a job. Not much else.

Cons

Management - worker gap was huge. No communication ever happened. Always short staffed. Policy was selectively enforced on people who were not "friends" with management.
