Pros

Nice Co-Workers, quality products for Coffee such as milk and beans.

Cons

Lack of training from senior staff on client management or complex mental health issues and disabilities. Multiple apps to monitor a corporate network instead of one consolidation of the systems. Lack of communication between the portfolios to build capacity and potential for staff into roles suited to their education levels and passions in youth and community work away from the Cafe despite hiring people with these skills in social services at a junior level and not at a senior level so top down management felt backwards. Not peer led for mental health clients. Failed to provide paid domestic violence leave despite promoting that they do.

Pros

Really nothing good about this place

Cons

- management have favorites and promote their favorites to become other managers - all talk and no action - high staff turnover - they promote and publish great marketing materials but don't let it food you, it's all for show. - They're actually a cult - don't drink the coolaid - they don't take staff complaints seriously - people and culture (HR) told other staff members confidential information - they can't afford to pay proper wages, so their staff are all entry-level and there's little support for them so the frontline workers who are passionate people are being let down and not skilled enough to work with the cohorts
