Waitrose is a worker-owned cooperative though.
It's part of the John Lewis Partnership which isn't a cooperative. It's a company where workers are given a "partner" status and allocated a share of profits. When you look into it, it's still a big business with employees.
Well that's less neat.
We have a place like that locally that's pretty terrible to its employees.
Well that's neat.
