    Most of them are fantastic! However, you always have the ones who like to start trouble and cause drama. It's best to stay clear of those ones!

  • Mostly good. But there's good and bad apples everywhere you work. Getting cursed out and having cups of hot coffee thrown at me by my co workers and it never be addressed is horrid and i hope it doesn't happen to anyone else. Managers don't even take time to train. I have never actually workee with my store manager. She's always gone.

  • Like a family.. You love em one moment but dislike the at times

Asked to all employees at Dunkin'

  • Cliquish and haphazardly run

  • Excellent

  • Owners don't see what goes on at all, granted they pay managers at each location to make sure everything is being professionally and accurately handled. No tips at the one I work at, owners choice. Dealing with customer service when about 1/2 of the people I come in contact with are pretty inconsiderate, unappreciative and rude..we deserve tips. Usually in the workplace, you have a few really great workers and then you have people who get paid the same amount and don't do nearly as much. It's way too stressful and there's way too much to do for the amount I get paid...minimum wage.
