TWISTED SUGAR

I had a good start working there then the assistant manager and lead baker left and management really fell downwards.
There were some good coworkers only had an issue with one or two, due to them not really doing any work or doing the bare minimum. Other than that coworkers were pretty nice.
Management never came in to check on the store. Our order list was usually ignored. We had to message the manager to get anything restocked. Multiple times they ignored those messages. Management also waited till the day before  the last day open to tell us that the store was closing. Overall my experience working there was pretty rocky and negative.

The job itself is pretty good. It's fun and a very good option for a first time Job. 

It is quick to pick up, and has many aspects to the job to keep it from getting boring. 

However, the pay is straight up disrespectful and they fired some of their oldest employees at the location for asking for raises or promotions beyond the 8$/hr.


in my time at twisted sugar, i was promised a certain amount of hours, and ended up being an empty promise as i was told i could have 30+ hours a week but was only given 9-12. if you’re not in high school, they don’t pay enough to survive at all, even being promised the hours you ask for. then, if you’re not mormon, you will feel out of place and that you don’t fit in, and they will try to push you out. you’re left there alone to run the store, and you’re there with no help when it gets busy and you will be forced to stay over your shift 75% of the time. 

Like working at most places where you're dealing with customers, there were issues at times. I know the management of this location has since changed, but my manager was the biggest problem. She was unorganized, grumpy, rarely came into the building, and often fired people quickly and then expected me to train someone new each shift I worked. Overall, I worked with great people and the business ran smoothly, but that was thanks to my coworkers and not the owner/manager. 

Working at Twisted Sugar is wonderful! The staff has variety and everyone gets along well. It is a family owned business and the owners are often present and boost morale. Schedule is extremely flexible, unlimited days off but no paid vacations. Perfect for a high school job or part-time if you are looking for something fun!

I loved working here. It was a very self motivated workplace, and they were helpful when hours needed to be adjusted for whatever reason. The only reason I quit was because of the pay. It was well below what it should’ve been, and there were no signs that a raise would come anytime soon, considering people who had worked there for multiple years had never gotten a raise.

My experience working here was that although it is a nice growing experience, because of the low pay and lack of customers, it becomes annoying quickly to be expected to go "above and beyond" when you're being paid close to minimum  wage and having to work with immature coworkers. So, I recommend this as a first step job, but nothing beyond that for anyone older than 16 who's already worked before.

Work-life balance
Hours are very flexible to work around your daily and changing schedule

Overall
Twisted sugar is a very fun/fast paced place to work, and has the opportunity to move up in your employment role. The entire team has become like family, occasional rough days and sometimes stressful, but overall very rewarding. Plus all of the treats are pretty great.

- A typical day was working on frosting cookies, cashier, cleaning and more
-The most enjoyable part was the people working there and most difficult was communicating for shift changes or complications 
-Management was difficult as they changed owners and the managers had clear favorites 



Working here is such a joy! It feels like a family. The owner is very kind and understanding when it comes to just being human. 

Hours are flexible and has been able to work with my hectic schedule!

The pay is average, but I think the working environment makes up for it, so I’m willing to ask for the extra hours there!
