Whether you’re looking for your first job or searching for a place to put down roots and flourish, PCC offers competitive wages, flexible scheduling and exceptional benefits and perks. Our co-op is also proud to partner with UFCW Local 3000, who’s represented our non-management store staff for nearly 40 years.
We believe access to quality health care is one of the most important benefits we can provide for our staff. PCC offers a generous plan for medical, dental and vision with low monthly premiums and low yearly out of pocket maximums for staff and their families. We also cover alternative medicine, like naturopathy and acupuncture, through our medical plan, as well as comprehensive mental health benefits. PCC also provides short- and long-term disability insurance.
