Foodja

A typical day at work is me getting to office then 5 minutes later I get multiple orders I have to do because they don't trust their drivers enough to deliver to their new clients or high end clients. Or it's the orders no driver is accepting because the payout is bad and it is really far away. Also you have to do restaurant visits where basically you make sure the restaurant is preparing and labeling the food correctly while making sure the drivers look professional and using the required equipment. You are told to tell the restaurant you are here to help the driver and to tell the driver you are there to make sure the restaurant is on it. I am supposed to be at the office to give supplies to drivers that need it but am always sent out to the field to make deliveries so they tend to get upset no one is there. Also being sent on orders everyday is confusing when drivers are constantly calling asking why they have no orders.

The company has a very specific culture and value system. Employees are a commodity to be used as needed and discarded when not. While many companies have this same ideology, the difference is that employees at Foodja lack the ability for growth, mentorship, and education, so that they have are competitive with other firms once they no longer have a value at foodja.  Few Managers have the people skills to do more than micromanage or follow a plan. Communication between management, departments, and the CEO lack transparency in reasoning, pay, promotion, growth plans, career opportunities, processes and procedures. I thought at one point that they have moved away from their old way of doing things, but that hire was short lived, despite the great work being done.  

I've been with Foodja for nearly 3 years and my experience has consistently improved as time has passed. In this year alone, the company has added more competitive benefits, more structure, and more employee appreciation events. 

Our CEO has made it a priority to have regular events that feature tasty food from great vendors we partner with, and the great food and foodie culture makes Foodja a really fun place to work at.

Working at Foodja also has a fun tech company feel because you're always learning new things and we have snacks and play games like startups do. While I love the startup feel, it doesn't have any of the downsides of a startup because work/life balance is a priority here. You don't have to work crazy hours or put out fires on nights and weekends because the CEO respects our personal time.

Overall, i would recommend Foodja to anyone who values work/life balance, loves food, and wants to earn competitive pay.

What is the best part of working at the company?
The company staff overall is made up of amazing people. Everyone is more like a family that helps each other out at any time. Professionalism and kindness are frontline.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Personally, the most stressful part was making confirmation calls when I helped that department. The reason is because I did not have much experience in that department.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
The environment was always upbeat. It was a place where I was always happy to work at with a vast diversity of people.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Returning calls and emails, answering calls, doing daily inventory, online meetings, going remotely to meet with potential new drivers for training. Training potential drivers at the office.

I prioritize a positive work environment and clear expectations. Unfortunately, the company allowed mistrust to develop through gossip and office politics. Additionally, there was a lack of clear direction, policies, and expectations, which contributed to job ambiguity and favoritism. The inadequate training I received set me up for failure and led to unfair treatment, making me less productive and ultimately resulting in my departure. It's disheartening that there was no accountability on their end. Hopefully, Foodja recognizes the importance of treating employees fairly for the benefit of everyone. Best of luck to them.

Working at Foodja has been an amazing experience. I’ve really enjoyed being part of such a collaborative, team-oriented environment where I’ve been supported by both my team and leadership. The team here is truly dedicated, and everyone works together to help each other succeed. The benefits are also great, especially the subsidized meals, which are a nice perk! Overall, I can honestly say that Foodja is one of the best companies I’ve worked for, and I’d highly recommend it to anyone looking to grow in a supportive, innovative, and exciting environment.

The role provides a great mix of relationship-building, sales strategy, and problem-solving. I get to work closely with restaurant partners, helping them optimize their performance on the platform while also exploring marketing opportunities to increase their visibility.  This role offered me the opportunity to help shape and grow Foodja’s marketing programs, making a direct impact on both our restaurant partners and the company’s success.

Foodja has been a great place to work, learn, and grow. I've been able to develop, not only professionally, but also personally. Foodja has a great resource of managers that are, above all else, good people. They listen and provide excellent advice. 

I've felt that I have been given the autonomy to do my work, learn new skills, and present ideas to advance the company. It takes a little bit over 3 months to learn the ins-and-outs of Foodja, but that can be said for just about any company. 

Overall, I'm very happy with the work-life-balance afforded to me while working at Foodja. 

The bonus commission structure is based on an exponential increase in revenue, making it unachievable. Colleagues performed the correct sales motions in accordance with management and still did not get paid based on this structure. Compensation was also incorrectly relayed before hire. OTE was around $85K and was supposed to be a salaried job, but base pay is hourly and just above minimum wage. Great starter sales job, but not a good fit for somebody experienced. There are some perks like subsidized lunches and free snacks. It is not enough to outweigh the lack of sales team morale. 

What is the best part of working at the company?
Short hours with decent weekly pay and great driver support. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Driving your own car and no benefits

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Its an app but the driver support and dispatch team are awesome. They care

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
10:30 am - 12:30 pm 1-3 deliveries. Usually within less than 10 mile radius. Park in loading zones at businesses and quick drop off or set up. Take pics and go to next run or home
