Pros

friendly and bright people company is actively hiring tries to be socially engaging tempts you with salary in beginning

Cons

-the product is a mess and upper management changes their minds constantly without transparency across the board -seniority is represented by how many years you've been at the company over level of competency and can be frustrating -company restructuring happens frequently and information is often with-held from employees based on convenience -upper management acts like they care but will readily throw you under the bus if necessary to keep themselves intact, even if it means being contradictory and dishonest -there's no room for employee growth whatsoever, so consider that when recruitment entices you with a nice salary range -the benefits aren't as swanky as it sounds - there's no 401k matching and the breakfast is mostly fruit and bread. health benefits are mediocre and stipend has limitations and less than most companies of that size

Thank you for your comments. Employee satisfaction is imperative here at Plated and all feedback is taken very seriously. We are sorry that you had an unpleasant experience working with us. Our latest employee survey data indicates that our managers care about their employees growth and that our leaders are transparent about our company's metrics. We would welcome any advice on how to prepare a "swankier", free, daily breakfast for 200 employees and are open to hearing about how to improve our benefits offering. The feedback from our employees has been extremely positive regarding our medical, dental, & vision insurance offerings, a free Plated box every week ($2,500 worth of delicious food), a generous annual education stipend, our unlimited vacation policy, and our dog friendly office space. We would welcome any additional feedback that may help us improve our employee experience. After all, our employees are what make us great. Thank you!

Not enough hours/pay to pay bills, odd hours makes it almost impossible to work a 2nd job

Pros

good pay rate, associate discount on groceries, mostly good techs

Cons

Zero work life balance, unless you live to work. "Training" screams of "I don't care". They brag about how GREAT their pharmacist training is, but that was 20 years ago, today their 4 week great training has been shoved into ONE week of on-the-job training with zero follow up or concern that you can't possibly learn all you need in that time, then they shove you out the door. Training during a cyberattack that has nothing working? That's fine, you don't get any extra time despite the fact that you can't learn on a non-working system. Management BS is deep, such as "we want our employees to know why decisions are made" then no way to ask and none of the low level managers has any freaking clue as to why changing an address in the database was changed from just overtyping it to a 5 minute process of logging into a poorly written website to update - and you thought we were bad about it before! And they ask for feedback an entire ONCE a year, with no way of providing it before.
