A great learning experience

Unit Manager (Former Employee) - Surrey, BC - 24 August 2023

What is the best part of working at the company?The opportunities for growth, benefits are good. What is the most stressful part about working at the company?Short staffing can be an issue, that seems to be the case all across the hospitality industry. What is the work environment and culture like at the company?The company encourages growth and provides training opportunities. What is a typical day like for you at the company?Typically quite busy. Managers/supervisors generally run the units independently with routine monthly visits by district managers. You can expect to be working the line, cashier, ordering and doing paperwork depending on what is required at your unit.

Ok

CSR - Customer Service Representative (Former Employee) - Toronto, ON - 21 August 2023

Loved the coworkers. Management were never on site weekends, difficult to communicate with. Pay was decent for a part time position. Expected to work every single weekend to maintain a part time position

Great place to work

Server (Current Employee) - Toronto, ON - 22 July 2023

The working environment is fantastic and the management treats employees well. They provide enough hours to make a decent living. However, the work schedule can be inconsistent despite the smooth workflow.

Horrible working environment

Supervisor (Former Employee) - Oshawa, ON - 2 July 2023

You can't advance in the company, they don't like to pay their employees a fair wage and management are huge bullies. Wanted to add on more and more responsibilities without pay increase.

Pros

Some co workers were nice

Cons

The pay

Exhausting and Unappreciated

Supervisor (Former Employee) - Halifax, NS - 17 June 2023

This company only worries about its bottom line & not staffing sufficiently to keep up with the workload. When sales are below their goals they cut back staff even further. The pay is barely above minimum wage and is not a living wage. Management are very unprofessional, one of which was a bully in my case. Complaints fall on deaf ears.

Pros

Lunches up to $10 before tax

Cons

Usually don't get our breaks because it's very busy, always physically struggling to keep up because of lack of staff.

The most disappointing professional experience

Executive Concierge | CIBC Square (Former Employee) - Toronto, ON - 15 June 2023

While there are some wonderful individuals working for Compass Group, the overall atmosphere created by those in charge was toxic and disrespectful. I had the opportunity to work under the regional director, and it quickly became clear that there was no interest in providing support, respect or listening to their team. Additonally, I was mislead about my position, which was a new role for Compass Group, however I was presented with a position very different to what was promised prior to signing the contract. Benefits are provided at a COST to the employees after 6 months (unless you have any interest in becoming a supervisor or higher), and it is costly for the individual. I can honestly admit that this experience was not a positive one, and I chose to leave due to the toxicity, and lack of respect shown by leaders. All the hard workers there deserved so much better.

Cons

Long hours, toxicity, disrespect

Productive and high paced

Supervisor (Current Employee) - Edmonton, AB - 13 June 2023

Decent work but really high paced. Will keep you on your feet. Work hours will vary and will be on call most of the time.Pay is pretty low for how much workload is given thought.

Stay away from this place.

Corporate Conference/Workplace Server (Former Employee) - Toronto, ON - 13 May 2023

They lie about the hours they will give you in the interview. Also, they say you get benefits, but you really dont. They also explained to me that you get tips, but you actually don't. Stay away
