Arby's Employee Reviews for Crew Member

This was my first job. I really cherish it because I think it was an excellent job to be my first. I truly learned what excellent customer service is. I felt encouraged by managers and coworkers. I feel as if I wouldn't have developed the same work skills if I had worked anywhere else. The staff was also provided with lots of out-of-work events, which were super fun! I would have kept working here if it wasn't too far from my house.

Nice pace

Crew Member (Former Employee) - Orillia, ON - 22 March 2023

Arby’s is an alright restaurant job if you’re just starting out, or want a bit of a slower pace compared to somewhere like Mcdonalds, though my location in the summer gets hectic & busy, we always try to enjoy ourselves while were working. Only downside is sometimes they do not put enough staff on and management is left running around compensating other empty positions rather then being able to run their shift effectively.

Not satisfied at all

Crew Member (Former Employee) - St. Albert, AB - 1 March 2023

The manager is always not around, they go camping for atleast short notice and let other people handle their job. It is a toxic workplace, crews are uncomfortable with the manager which they/we shouldn’t be.

Pros

Free lunches

Cons

Toxic

Fun only if you’re apart of the clique

Crew Member (Current Employee) - London, ON - 23 February 2022

Management has been terrible, full of drama and nobody tries to work unless it’s during a really bad rush, paid breaks and 50% off food is nice, rules are only enforced for people who aren’t apart of the main group, not a terrible place to work or start off at but not a good place to work at long term.

Pros

Paid breaks, Flexible scheduling

Cons

Terrible culture/environment, almost no chance of advancement

Alright

Crew Member (Current Employee) - Belleville, ON - 13 November 2021

Alright place to work. General manager seems on top of things. It is minimum wage and part time hours so you can’t live off it solely. Fun environment though.

Terrible place

Crew Member (Current Employee) - Regina, SK - 8 September 2021

Literally just the worst place to work ever. Management gives the schedule a day in advance and doesn’t listen to your availability. They also have always been short staffed and have never gotten to hire anyone new for years because they always end up quitting because of our management problems. Just sad honestly

Inconsistent Management, Lack of Hours, Long Shifts, Lack of Covid-19 Regulation Enforcement

Fun place to work

Crew Member/Backline Supervisor (Former Employee) - Orleans, ON - 30 September 2019

The environment was always pleasant and nothing too crazy every happened while working. The best was talking and learning from the staff about any aspect of work or outside of work.

Productive workplace, usually run well.

Crew Member (Current Employee) - London, ON - 22 July 2019

Productive workplace, but no air conditioning so it is uncomfortable. Managers work well and keep employees efficient. The worst part of the job is the deep fryer. It burns the arms and makes the workplace very hot.

Pros

Discounted food

Cons

Little breaks.

Bad management team

Crew Member (Former Employee) - Orillia, ON - 11 May 2019

Head office told our store manager to cut hours and she hired 6 people just after that. You can be given no shifts for a long period of time for no reason. Some get one shift in two months

Pros

nothing

Cons

hours were terrible

Not a good place to work

Crew Member (Former Employee) - Medicine Hat, AB - 28 December 2017

Arby's is no longing in Medicine Hat. Probably for a good reason too, the owner is sexist. As well as cheap, would have multiple phone calls from collection agencies.

Fun and Friendly work environment

Crew member (Former Employee) - Lindsay, ON - 31 March 2015

Arby's was a really great place to work. There were a lot of regular customers which always made my day better. The manager's were friendly and made my shift go by faster.

Pros

Friendly managers, discount on food

Cons

weird hours, no benefits

Every employee was very friendly which created a pleasant environment. Going to work was always a pleasure.

Crew (Former Employee) - London, ON - 1 June 2013

A typical day didn't vary very much, I was backline, so I would prepare meals for the majority of the shift, and clean when needed. Sometimes I would work til close, so I would do those duties as well. Some managers were strict, others were not, but they were always fair and made sure to get the job done in a timely manner. My co-workers were easily the best part about working at Arby's, it rough days a lot more doable and in some cases, enjoyable.
