Overworked, Undersupported

Pros

Many great colleagues, nice office

Cons

No work-life balance at all. Metrics and goals are set by those who have never done the job, so don’t really know what they’re asking from their employees. Thus, you end up having to work at least 10, more often 12, sometimes 14 hours a day just to barely hit your numbers — unless you want to work weekends too.

Pros

They had great benefits and a decent community feel amongst team members. I didn't dislike my coworkers, I thought they were all great people.

Cons

The work was trash. I worked as a Tech Expert at Apple for three years and I though THAT was bad. They sent us to Omaha to "train" when it was a waste of time and money and we sat in a classroom and looked at powerpoints. The work was beyond overwhelming in their support section, I knew a few people there in other roles who would constantly say they wanted to quit. Tier one support is treated like dogs. And they expect you to stay in that position for at least two years. They cared more about taking on more restaurants than they did training them. An excuse I would hear often was "well sometimes the restaurants didn't want training" which is absolute garbage when you have restaurants calling in who have been live for a week and never closed their cash drawers, don't know how to log into the app, and so many other basic stuff that they should have been trained on.

Toast Inc Response

This was tough to read as it could not be farther from the experience that we hope all employees have at Toast. In fact, what you’ve described is the exact opposite of it. While I’m not sure when you left, we have been making continuous investments in customer education and training. Support employees are some of our highest impact employees, and we care deeply about their happiness and overall well being. I appreciate you sharing your perspective and would be happy to connect through LinkedIn should you wish to discuss further. - Emmanuelle Skala, SVP Customer Success

Cons

Compensation No empathy, just aggressive growth Not sales centric mentality- just credit card processor mentality Expectations of 12 hour work days Expectations differ from team to team Lack of communication and follow up from team to team
