Pros

I have had a really positive experience working for Co-op Funeralcare. The team I work with are supportive and genuinely care for both families and each other. The company provides good training and ongoing support, which helps to build confidence, especially for those new to the business. Management are approachable and understanding.

Cons

Can be busy and pressured at times. Emotionally demanding role at peak times.

Pros

Team got on well, hours weren't particularly harsh (pay not particularly impressive either)

Cons

Overworked due to corporate ruthlessly cutting hours (while hiring more staff?), generally piling on more and more work to the store team without considering time constraints, absolutely no opportunity for advancement while a store manager is already there
