Red Rabbit

During my tenure at Red Rabbit, I've seen A LOT of turnover. Management is a joke. They hire a ton of Spanish speaking staff in lower positions, and hire only English speaking managers (which causes more confusion and disconnect). They do not foster team work and pick and choose when to follow their own policies. They constantly hire under qualified managers and do not promote from within. However, I'd recommend working here if you are looking to gain experience. Be warned - the current payroll manager does not take her job seriously and does not care about the employees needs or upsets when she runs our pay incorrectly. There are plenty of times I've had to go without a paycheck past pay day. They should also either hire a spanish speaking HR person or at least sponsor her to learn. She tries her best to help but the language barrier leaves most teams feeling helpless if they can't find someone to translate.

The company is deeply committed to its mission and the vast majority of the people who work for the company share a passion for the mission. Red Rabbit is a community-focused company which values and celebrates diversity. The company is growing quickly and with growth comes some challenges to organization. However that growth offers opportunities to have a real impact which isn't the case at every company. The work place culture is inclusive and management leads from a place of compassion. The hardest part of the job is maintaining the quality and consistency of the product across several product offerings. The most enjoyable part of the job is seeing the impact you are having in the community. If you are looking for meaningful work, consider a role at this company. 

As a driver the communication was horrible, the cars were not safe, often got sent out with no gas.  The best thing about the job was the company's mission of serving healthy food to children, which the CEO does not even believe in - he's in it for the money, folks. There are no standards here.  Different managers want different things, so you can be suspended ny one manager for doing something another would not care about.  Ridiculous.  Payroll is horrible as sometime you have to walk to a main bank branch to cash a check.  Never work here unless you are desperate for job.

I work from 900 p.m. t0 500 am. Driving and delivering food to schools and day care facilities throughout the tri state area. It's a experience most people would like to have. Driving around the city late at night with no traffic. I like what I do. I rarely see others when I arrive at my work place. But the few I do come into contact with are really nice people. Management has taught me very well when it comes to keeping my paper work organized, that part of the job is the easiest. The hardest part is the lifting. I easily turn that into enjoyment by using it as a workout. The most enjoyable part of my job is that I like what I do when it comes to driving.

The management is 21 years old and the cooks are teenagers who have no experience running the kitchen. If you make one error it’s the end for you. I’m the oldest in the restaurant and the only one that has experience. They rather believe customers instead of asking their employees what actually happened. They point fingers but can never admit their own mistakes. It’s a very sad excuse for a restaurant 

The leaders of the programs are very respectful, have a very reasonable approach to problems/issues and are excellent in communication. The co-workers are easy going individuals with great intelligence and wisdom. Their cleverness does not make them less humble, which I absolutely admire and love about each one of them.

Caring company culture and ownership, diverse group of employees, great work-life balance, family comes first. Ability to advance to leadership or management if you care and put in the work. Ability for higher earnings with open availability, including late nights and weekends. Some managers possessed more leadership qualities and general people-skills than others. 

Red rabbit is a fun relaxed enviroment. It is fast paced and productive. There generally is a good rapport and working relationship interpersonally between staff and management. Overall red rabbit is a decent place to work.

Went for a trial once and was told I'll be getting paid. Never got paid, gave me a wrong impression. As a worker, you do the job as they expect you to do it right. You have your right to expect them to pay you on time. Makes no sense. They need to get their payroll organized. If that's not a priority for them. Then it's a joke, don't bother trying and applying if you have responsibilities to sustain yourself! life
