Pros

-Paid weekly. -some managers were understanding and accomodating.

Cons

-union dues are large amounts of money deducted each week but when you have an issue where you need their assistance it is not satisfactory at all -Management was aware of several employees who sexually harassed or plainly harrass women in the workplace on a regular basis and did nothing about it, going so far as to tell victims they shouldn’t provoke him. -Manager constantly watching you on cameras waiting for you to do something wrong in the slightest -No employee discounts, no employee events, the company does not value their employees at all and treats them like they are disposable. -Constantly changing your hours and imposing ridiculous new rules about availability pulling them out of union book. Forcing people to work Saturdays and Sundays, even the older patron employees. -Constant employee gossip and hostile employee environment. Possibly based on how bad the ambience is to work here. Just miserable. Employees constantly ragging on each other, watching each other, spreading rumours, talking negatively about people and being friendly to their face. -Lunchrooms are disgusting, smelly. Always dirty and flies everywhere. They installed a loud speaker even in the lunchroom so people can still hear when they are being paged which prevents people from actually getting a proper break to unwind and eat in peace. -so understaffed in terms of full time employees, manager did not want to fork the extra cash for the necessary full time employees, instead forcing full time work and responsibilities upon part time workers. Often having cake decorators or bakers, for example, performing other job roles like stocking shelves due to shortage of labour from the employees actually hired to do the tasks. -The music they play on the overhead is redundant and mummifying. After years it becomes excruciatingly painful to endure.
