It was ok
Shift Supervisor (Former Employee) – Brantford, ON – 21 April 2018
Management was always the make or break factor. Managers change frequently so you will have a manager you like for a short period of time and then likely have one you don't like for longer.
Pros
flexible hours
Cons
open 24/7

A great starter place to work
Tim Hortons Team Member (Current Employee) – Caledonia, ON – 19 April 2018
I had an amazing experience with the Tim Hortons I was working at. I created friendships with most of the staff that ended up becoming very meaningless relationships with friends. The workplace was able to work around my school and give me good hours. It was a great place to work.
Pros
Great co-workers
Cons
You always had to work weekends
High-stress job
Food preparation, cashier and drive-thru positions (Current Employee) – North Bay, ON – 19 April 2018
Workers often deal with a lot of negativity from others - including co-workers, management/supervision staff and customers. Fast-paced and stressful work. Lack of job security and raises in wage due to employer malfunction. However, it teaches valuable people skills and it is good experience to have.
Pros
Free coffee, donuts & Timbits
Cons
Stress
Good work culture amongst team members

Great staff and management
Trainer (Former Employee) – Grande Prairie, AB – 18 April 2018
Overall Tim Hortons was not a bad work experience for me. The management was usually friendly. The thing I didn't like, was to work sundays. It was mandatory at least every second week. At times it could get really busy. Mostly Fridays.
Pros
Free coffee
Cons
Sundays
Fast paced

A frantic, yet somewhat friendly workplace.
Tim Hortons Team Member (Former Employee) – Kingston, ON – 18 April 2018
A typical day of work in this location generally involved moving directly onto the floor and handling sales. Alongside this, it also involved maintaining cleanliness of the store, whether it be internally, or externally.
The atmosphere here was, despite being frantic most times, quite friendly, and enjoyable. I had always made it a point to try to walk in with a smile, and make sure myself, and any clients I interacted with, would leave the same way.
