The coworkers were the only reason I stayed as long as I did
At Vice Burger, their sister restaurant, there are no managers. Literally it's you and one other coworker, if you're lucky otherwise you work alone. They don't know most of the things happening in the restaurant and brush off the employees whenever offered suggestions. Good luck with communication which can take anywhere from hours to days to get a response from them. Sometimes, they never respond at all. There are also almost no benefits to working there. There is no sick pay, pto, and the health insurance offered is awful with little to no coverage that costs a minimum of $60 a month for the most basic plan. A couple weeks before I quit, I wanted to transfer to another one of their businesses, Roots Coffee, which was closer to where I lived and would be more available. They never gave me an update about the transfer and continuously cut down my hours to where I was working one day a week. I told them I had enough of it and would finish up my next week but after that, I was done working for them. They then, took me off the schedule completely, deleted my message from the group chat, and kicked me out with no communication. I had to text HR and ask them why and call them to get a proper answer. They said I no called no showed which resulted in the immediate resignation. I called out because I took my sister to the ER. My phone has trouble sending and receiving messages due to being a bad provider so they didn't get the message until a few hours after I sent it. They knew about this issue with my phone and knew I was actively trying to get it resolved.

The job itself is so much fun, there is just a lot of extra responsibility thrown onto people with little to no extra compensation. There are no managers for either of the locations so everything is done through the owners directly. They never seem to be happy with the work that we do and clearly care more about catering to the customers every whim rather than having the employees’ back. They don’t want to work with or listen to ideas that aren’t theirs. Other than that the work is enjoyable. We make smoothies, hot bowls, coffee, and soups. A lot of our job consists of prep work and just knowing how to make all of our menu items. We take care of keeping track of inventory and letting the owners know what to order. There are some nice benefits that come with the job, but pay is only about 9-13 an hour. The co workers are so sweet and helpful, we all have each other’s backs and are able to get things done efficiently. 

The job description is very misleading. You are expected to learn how to not only prep, but cook to order all menu items, not just "pastries". New menu items are added with little to no warning or training on how to prepare the items. Promos are made a few days in advance and barely communicated to the workers but they will still expect those items to be sold. There was countless maintenance issues that the owners either refused to fix or gave "other" solutions that were just a quick fix. The owners like to cut costs on mostly everything but still expect you to serve 5-star quality. Communication between the owners and workers is just non existent. There is also absolutely zero accountability or even recognition for your hard work from the owners as well. Any problem you come across just be prepared to have to handle it on your own and then have the owners get upset at you for it. Everything will always be your fault.

Happy K9 offered me a full-time position but was later told me that all new hires are part-time until some vague performance goals were met, despite inadequate training. Actual training was nonexistent at the beginning and inconsistent later on. Location was always short staffed and turnover rate is high, the longest tenured worker in the position I was hired for had been there less than 6 months. Existing employees had many knowledge gaps as a result.  Existing employees were not scheduled for the number of hours they desired. Seems that unclear expectations, poor training, short-staffing, and not granting enough hours all contribute to high turnover. Happy K9 also does not make an effort to include folks with disabilities, especially invisible disabilities. This job would only be suitable for someone with prior experience seeking part-time work (who is comfortable with chaos).

First off: there is no manager! Not even team leads! So we’re left to fend for ourselves with no guidance! There are employees that have been there awhile that are gracious and happy to answer my questions, but they have the same job title as me! And they don’t know what a manager would!

Second: there were multiple times where it was just me and other new employees closing the store by ourselves 

Third: I would have to text my “manager” multiple times to get her to respond to me. And most times she just won’t.

Fourth: I could go on and on about things i dislike, but there were also things i did like. my coworkers were actually my favorite part of the job! And that’s the end of the pros!

Working here is difficult, draining, and stressful.. 

Management will constantly micromanage and gaslight you..

They are extremely write up happy.. they will write you up with no warning or explanation.. 

They will also write you up if you talk about getting written up .. they have microphones in the building and watch and listen to everything you say and do ..

It’s very unsettling idk how their even in business


Working here made me extremely depressed 
I didn’t even relize how depressed I was there until after I left and got away from it .. 

They have a horrible time management skills and you, as an employee, should be expecting your given schedule to not be followed. For the amount of dogs expected to be taken each day, the facility I worked at was understaffed. Some employees were unable to take lunch breaks, or breaks in general, on some days due to the work load forced upon them. Animals are well taken care of, however, and the people working seem to passionate about the pets.

I loved this job at first but after a while they get really comfortable with you and their true colors start to show.

Working here is not the best if anything goes wrong the blame is on us when it should be on a managers. There are zero onsite managers and it’s so difficult to get in touch with the manager! The pay is horrible and not worth working there at all! The dogs, coworkers, and pet parents were the only thing keeping me there.

You will like this job if you enjoy an employer that likes poor work ethic and doesnt appreciates when you go the extra mile. I worked here for almost 9 months and I liked 1 coworker the rest didnt do much of anything. I was promised things I never got and there was always an excuse of why it's not the right time. I did more work than the other shift lead but she still got paid more than me. Definitely an unfair work environment!

Learned absolutely nothing. Management is childish, unfair and has favorites. Will have multiple employees do the same busywork (example: every day a different employee is  having to complete something that was assigned to someone else that was never done) while management and leads sit on their phones all day.
There is no work life balance. And the pay is very low.
