MeeT Restaurants Pay & benefits reviews

Really short shifts with a tip pool just doesn’t work. “Floor leads” shouldn’t exist as they just get longer hours for less work. Free staff meal for all employees is nice

Owners use your tips to pay the kitchen

Server/Bartender (Former Employee) - Vancouver, BC - 13 October 2023

Everyone is very kind and fake nice, but they use a tip pool system... because of this you can sell $3000.00 in sales but make $100 in tips and that's only because they give all the tips to the kitchen to compensate for the fact that they pay them minimum wage. The owners are so greedy that they will take YOUR earned money to pay the kitchen staff. I'm not talking like 2% tip out, they take somewhere between 30%-50% of the FOH tips for the day to pay the kitchen. They also give absolutely no break down when asked about it. Stay far away if you are looking to make any money.

Pros

Free Lunches

Cons

Bad money, horrible owners.

Great staff and fun environment

Lead (Former Employee) - Gastown - 18 February 2022

Everyone is nice and cares about each other including owners. Great tips when it comes busy season but people burn out every day. It brings employees to get bonded though.

Pros

Free meal, great tips

Cons

They don’t keep giving a raise unless you move up to the management

Was hopeful but disappointed

Human Resources Assistant (Former Employee) - Vancouver, BC - 20 April 2021

I did not feel as though I was respected as an employee nor did I feel that I received the training I needed to be successful in my job. Communication was unfortunately not effective and work/life balance was not respected. Overall I feel as though management could do better in providing an environment where staff feels supported and prepared to complete the tasks needed to do the job. Also, the management could improve by implementing a training program prior to hiring new employees.

Pros

Gym benefits free food

Cons

communication training management

Best employer I've ever had!

Manager (Current Employee) - Vancouver, BC - 20 July 2020

MeeT has a great, fun, positive culture. They do a great job at hiring people because everyone gets along so well. The Managers are driven and supportive. There's lots of opportunity for advancement and is growing. The food is SO good and there's a free meal on every shift, there's a lot of other great benefits as well, especially if you're interested in growing with the company.

Pros

GREAT staff, great Managers, fun environment, individuality is celebrated, growth opportunities, treated like family

fun workplace, don't expect to get rich

Server (Former Employee) - Vancouver, BC - 23 February 2019

Fun place to work, but not a place to make money. Shifts were short during the day, sometimes not starting at all Co workers were all fun and easy to get along with Management were approachable and understanding, as well as flexible Free meal with every shift- the food was good Great staff perks and felt like a family.
