ONroute Careers and Employment

For it being one of my first jobs, its not half bad. The staff, in general, are very nice, maybe a few bad apples but as does every workplace. The management is nice and will often have your back when you're dealing with a, for lack of a better word, raging customer. However, there does often seem to be an understaffing problem. I was constantly doing 30+ hours despite being part-time. Supervisors are constantly looking for people to cover shifts, which is not necessarily their fault, but it's peculiar how often shifts seem to be lacking employees. This doesn't tie in well with my next statement which is that the location is HORRIBLE. Always incredibly busy, which is in no way helped by the understaffing problem. Will sometimes be working non-stop for 4 hours by yourself in an incredibly hot environment with customers constantly coming through. If you wanted to work with good people then by all means be my guest but be aware that it includes a very rough mental strain.

Exhausting, depressing and increasingly demanding

New CEO and leadership came in a couple years ago. Since then it's been an ever-changing, disorganised downward spiral. I waited 2 months for uniforms, that were nearly see through and certainly not appropriate for outdoors in the winter. We're not allowed to accept tips any longer, and the company has refused to provide any pay increases in recent years. They do however demand, best word for it, more work, with less people, refuse to repair broken equipment and provide the tools necessary. No longer allowed to take any time off during the summer months.

Stressful, Lack of Respect for Employees

The company lacks leaders but has many dictators. Lack of respect for Employees who work hard with no benefits or equal pay.No weekends/holidays off. I’ve watched many good employees leave because of the lack of respect that’s been shown. the covid protocols are a joke that this team doesn’t follow. The Upper management is a tight circle where new opportunity’s only go to them, no option for in company applications. They hire without any prior experience, so they’ll hire about anyone. it’s a stressful fast paced environment not suited for friendly outgoing people. Save yourself the turmoil.
