Pros

For now, benefits are okay

Cons

Toast has continuously removed/changed benefits to cut costs. They laid off 550 employees, just to hire 150 BPOs. They have broken the trust of all of customer care employees and nobody is feeling safe in their role right now. Toast has proven that they are there to make shareholders happy. They once stood by their employees, but now will side with shareholders before their own employees mental health. Metrics are becoming more strict and more unrealistic, which is causing mental health problems for their front line employees.

-Numerous Sales teams that share the same markets/TAMs. Customers and prospects get exhausted of outreach - Since going public, the goal posts keep moving forward even if 60% of the org hit goal. -A number of core leaders have left, new ones still learning the ropes which was hindering the orgs and teams
