Family business, nice to work at for the family environment but hard work
Bakery Worker (Former Employee) - Lewiston, ME - 29 July 2020
It’s a great starting job. They care about their employees but are understaffed. This obviously has a toll on the staff. Family environment is a great place for a starting job for high school or college

New experience
General Labourer (Former Employee) - Toronto, ON - 15 March 2017
My experience at Italian Bakery was very enlightening. I got to experience hands on work with different machinery and learn a different side of the job. Marjory of the workers were White or Hispanic. The hardest part with this job was standing in the heated room for eight hours straight. The most enjoyable part of the job was meeting the new people and the easy packaging.
Pros
Easy packaging.
Cons
Was a very hot enviorment.
