RecommendsNeutral OutlookApproves of CEOI worked at Coles for more than a year
Pros
Great pay compared to other companies Good culture, but this is dependant on the manager Good hours of work (usually) Job can be fulfilling and fun depending on what you are looking for. Interactions with customers was very fun, and was easily the highlight of my job.
Cons
Can be some gossiping and backbiting going on Work can be physically tiring Hours can be quite random and inconvenient Hard to get a few weeks of holiday, even as a casual employee Training is not enough. One hour of video training does not begin to cover what is done on the ground floor. On the job training is random and inefficient.

RecommendsNeutral OutlookNo Opinion of CEOI have been working at Coles part-time for more than 5 years
Pros
- Casual rates are excellent compared to other retailers - Work with a variety of people with diverse cultural backgrounds - Majority of customers are very friendly and the community is welcoming overall - Conveniently located to where I live - Flexible hours - Job is very easy
Cons
- Sometimes I am stuck in the service desks serving both registers alone including the cigarette kiosk which can be stressful, especially when it is very busy. - As a casual, sometimes your shifts may get cut for no reason and you get sent home early which is out of your control
