Pros

I can't say enough positive things about Toast. I worked here both before and after the 2020 COVID layoffs and I'm so grateful to have been able to return. - Warm, inviting place to work. - Amazing product. - Good benefits and flexible schedules. - Great co-workers and managers. Our company culture is really strong and hiring reflects that. People really go out of their way to help each other. - Incredible enablement program and development opportunities. - A lot of transparency when going through promotion/interview process.

Cons

I don't have cons per se, but I do want to be clear about some of the challenges of working at Toast that should be considered! - While we are a tech company, we are first and foremost here to service the restaurant industry. Having a passion for the hospitality industry is a must, IMO. - We're a growing company and getting up to speed can be a bit overwhelming. The support system is there, but the first 6 months can be intense. Don't be afraid to ask for help and trust in your managers. - Teams here work very hard and are very passionate, coming from a slower paced environment might be challenging at first. - We're always adjusting and improving, and that means a lot of change. That change can be frustrating to some. If you can embrace it though, it's very manageable and there is a lot of grace given by leadership.

Pros

The benefits and health insurance are amazing and the company culture as a whole is very positive. It was a pleasure to work with almost everyone I met in my time there.

Cons

Lower management, especially for care teams, deeply lacks integrity. Retaliatory practices, lack of communication, and failure to adhere to their own policies are very common behavior depending on who your manager is. The inconsistencies across what is expected from leadership are profound and it is disappointing how much this can derail your career trajectory at Toast. It’s also very difficult to help customers at times, as Toast is notorious for launching new products at customers and providing little to no support to agents that are then expected to troubleshoot using sparse or nonexistent resources and absolutely no training. Cross-collaboration with teams that occasionally intersect is also very challenging, particularly Sales/Onboarding and Care. There were many instances where sales and onboarding specialists set customers up with false expectations of the product, which leaves care teams to deal with the aftermath.
