Pros

Co-workers are pretty great, networking

Cons

A company that claims to care about the health and well-being of people, but treats their employees like absolute garbage. Experienced emotional and verbal abuse at the hands of a manager for a year before anything was done about it. Sexual harassment that “corrective training” didn’t even help. Pay employees horribly and expect the world. (I entered in my hourly rate on Glassdoor and it popped up with an error asking if I entered the correct amount as it seemed too low... made me lol! ) Employees can’t even afford to eat the healthy food they sell- you’ll see them eating McDonald’s and Domino’s in back on their breaks. When “hero pay” was announced in LA during the pandemic, they raised all of the prices in the store, and cut their employees hours and laid them off. They only care about making money- could care less about people’s (employees and customers alike) well being. They just know that’s what people in LA are into and it’s a good way to make money- so they pretend to care. I have NO IDEA why there are so many good reviews for this place on here, as every single employee (former and current- at least 30 people at various locations) that I know share the same opinion of Erewhon and their owners. Btw- CEO is the WORST and will literally not even acknowledge the employees in his stores as they are viewed as being beneath him.

Pros

The team itself was solid, and the store's a genuinely nice place to work day-to-day.

Cons

The compensation is just not aligned with what you're actually doing. You're running a shift, working register, dealing with customers, training people, managing closings - and all of it's on a cashier's wage. I actually did the math once and it came out to about $17/hour when you factor in everything. The store charges premium prices and does well financially, but shift leads don't see any of that reflected in their pay. That gap is unsustainable, and it's exactly why I left.
