Cons
Too many to list. Let's start with the fact that I was trained by people who do not possess the ability to fully comprehend or speak English. In addition, these employees all look to cut corners and literally will show you two different ways they do their job- the way they do it and the way they do it when management is breathing down their neck. Regular employees make minimum wage or barely above it; small wonder they lack motivation or drive. Regional trainer is comparable to a Nazi drill instructor. If you love being constantly micromanaged and questioned, this is the perfect career for you. Regional managers are detached from reality with unrealistic expectations. Store evaluations are received from InMoment feedback module, in which a 4/5 score across the board is considered a complete failure. Impossible to reach perfection by all standards for every individual customer. Upper level management can easily be seen in the dining room on their laptop, cell phones, and other devices for hours on end. Hours are ridiculously long and exhausting with no possibility of a set schedule, no flexibility when it comes to your own personal needs. Constantly short staffed because of employees who always call in on a daily basis with excuses, which in turn effectively makes management impossible. When you finish training they will place you at a store based on their needs, instead of based on something relevant and pertinent to you like, I don't know, where you live! Constantly attempting to fix what isn't broken. New policies and procedures implemented multiple times every month/quarter. The real focus of Jason's Deli isn't on the employees, core values, or even the customer, it's all about the bottom line.
