Immoral and Unethical Business With A History of Unpaid Labor Disputes - Publishing Assistant Chef Koochooloo Employee Review

As a freelancer, you deserve better than Chef Koochooloo. Save yourself the headache and time by finding a company that rewards your enthusiasm and talents. This is not it. Specifics: The job descriptions are not accurate--expect to be asked to do a number of things you were neither trained to do nor agreed to participate in. The app itself is an amalgamation of poorly cited cultural facts and tidbits that teach kids inaccurate information about different cultures worldwide. Black characters are voiced by white people with no knowledge of the culture, food, or region. Under the guise of educational access and equity the true motive of profit for its founder, Layla Sabourin, is apparent and overarching. Expect your pay will be withheld and you're agency as a contributor to not be respected. We are there to enter data, our worth is only as good as our ability to move quickly and catch up on our own (unpaid) time. Employee churn is amazingly high. Your email will likely have belonged to a dozen other recent past employees. This is a sign of bad management. Last but not least: the founder, Layla Sabourin, possesses no business acumen. Her tactics are boiler-plate intimidation and coercion. In an attempt to intimidate her fresh-out-of-college employees, she will resort to threats of withholding payment for the time they spent working on a project and then offer a compromise of continued employment if you agree to keep working. She is unopen to criticism/suggestions of any kind. This behavior will be justified using an incorrect interpretation of the contract. Don't be fooled, no contract is strong enough to withhold payment from an employee for the work they performed.
