Great job for learning the basics.
Cashier (Former Employee), Arnprior, ON – February 25, 2013
Pros: half price lunches and generally good people
Cons: lots of grease in the air, hot in the summer
Worked a lot, but learned the values of helping out others who need a hand and the importance of preparation.
Great place to learn a base set of values and hard work.
Managers are generally friendly and fun.
Only downside was the amount of stress handed out in rush times.

You do all the work, all the best, care about the store but doesnt mean anything to the management. No growth, no salary increase, no place for development.

Productive,fun and fast paced
Shift Supervisor (Former Employee), Nanaimo, BC – February 11, 2013
Pros: great teamwork and free meals, lots of fun and great learning environment
Cons: short staffed sometimes and hours varied
A great place to learn many skills, from costumer service to food safety and what it means to be part of a team. Friendly management and thorough customer care made it easy and fun to work there.
A typical day would begin with setting up positional charts, giving each staff member there goals and duties for the day. Then,I would TTM, which is Talk To – more... Me, go through with each staff member into their position.After the crew was in position I would moniter the sales and tills and do a regular walk through of the store and grounds to ensure customer satisfaction with meals and service and general store cleanliness. before my shift was complete I would change and balance out tills, complete an audit, fill and drop off deposits.
I learned how to handle the money, doing audits and balancing safe and tills, how to treat customers and staff alike. I learned the importance of teamwork and good communication.

The management at Wendys is phenomenal! No matter how tough things got there was good communication lots of help and they really do their best to ensure satisfaction to all guests.

The co workers were fun yet informative, the closeness of working together gave me a lot of friends and help through out the years. My old co workers were a great team to work with and learn from.
The hardest part of working there was it was a fast paced environment and so if we were short staffed it made it hard to be as efficient as we would have been with the missing staff members.
The most enjoyable would be the friendly competition to achieve store goals, the co workers and I really got to get to know each other while working side by side, which made the shifts fun and memorable. – less

Worked for 3 years
Crew Member (Former Employee), Winnipeg, MB – January 23, 2013
I loved this job. I love fast paced environments and made a lot of friends along the way. I was trained properly on everything!
I quit because they would give me a raise two weeks before minimum wage would go up which would make my raise useless because it was less than the new amount for minimum wage. I was promised a promotion to supervisor for two – more... years and after working extremely hard and my boss not following through with advancement promises, I quit. – less

Wendy's provided a good work environment, Chance for advancement and educated their employees
ASSISTANT MANAGER (Former Employee), Lower mainland – January 21, 2013
Pros: good benefit plans, free food for managers, room for advancement, good training program.
Cons: long night hrs.
Opening of the facility, Planing and preparation of entire days menu items.Managing and balancing cash for the day, also doing banking.
Each day you meet different kind of customers that you serve,
Have to manage 8-12 crew members on shift. Open and close facility, do shift change,plan for day, organise and dirrect team members in right dirrection to – more... achieve goal of the day. Take care of customer complaints and try to satisfy customers best I can within the guidelines. Prepare schedules, do reviews ,place order.
Get all different kinds of co-workers, some easy to manage, some have to work with within the guidline to manage them and train them to standards of operation. Over all pleasent environment to work in.
Hardest part is to satisfy everyone i.e.allteam members and customers.
The most enjoyable part is that you get to meet people of different culture and nature, you have to deal with each one in different way to satisfy them within the guidelines of company. – less
