Extreme Warning of Horrible Management

Pros

Nothing good here. No pros except for the extremely nice staff (not management).

Cons

INCREDIBLY aggressive, racist, and greedy management. Michael treats his employees like garbage, does not file his taxes but takes them out of checks (no W2's given to employees). He advertises tips being paid to employees (I know we made them, I watched hundreds of customer's tip upwards of 20%) but they are not included in the pay check and he pockets them. He treats immigrants and non-white employees like garbage, while putting white employees on pedestals. He takes advantage of his low-income/student employee base because he knows he can. Verbal abuse is a common, and I've even been grabbed so hard marks were left on my arms.

Pros

Nice coworkers, free sweet treats

Cons

Michael Friedlander: - belittles and bullies his staff to their faces and behind their backs - yells - micromanages through security cameras in his ‘office’ (his apartment) - will threaten to fire you if you ask for a single accommodation - will dock your base rate and hours (keep track of when you clock in and out) - never fails to underpay - will cut your hours if he dislikes you - has extremely high standards for ice cream scooping and donut making (which he will change without informing staff until they make a ‘mistake’) - is racist to nonwhite employees, especially those whose first language isn’t English - will make you cry while on the job - gets angry when you’re looking to restock supplies and not at the counter - will take over your shift and send you home if you do something to anger him - gaslights you - gets angry at staff for training new employees and showing them around - made inappropriate comments about an employee’s scars

Pros

None. The product was okay, standard ice cream.

Cons

Owner publicly breaded employees. Was horrifyingly rude to people who were ESL. It was shocking to see him work and communicate with others.
