Briefly describe your overall experience at your company
Review from Sales Dept
What do you like best about the leadership team?
I have been a shift lead for over a year and i have disabilies that cause me to be different than other shift leads and i feel like i get blamed and yelled at by the assistant manager and GM when i do things that i unfortunately cant control so i cant say i like anything the leadership team does.
Review from Sales Dept
Well I am part of the leadership team being a shift lead, and we do a great job at communicating issues, and resolve them quickly. Again; j really enjoy working with the company.
Review from Sales Dept
They are understanding to many situations and always finds way to reward the staff.
Review from Sales Dept
We work as a team and efficiently
Review from Sales Dept
They are sometimes laid back.
Review from Sales Dept
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Leaders need to learn how to do their job right. Managers at TSC disregard employees' livelihoods and higher-ups clearly do little to help.
Review from Sales Dept
We need more mature managers and store managers
Review from Sales Dept
Managing should be present and accessible instead of having his workers supervise and close up his store in the evenings
Review from Sales Dept
They need employees who actually do their job instead of sitting outside on her phone all day
Review from Sales Dept
Replace the management or owner
Review from Sales Dept
What is the best part about your compensation package?
Getting Payed bi-weekly and tips
Review from Sales Dept
I worked part time so no medical benefits
Review from Sales Dept
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
I believe with how hard myself, and other shift leads work that we should be paid more. We are currently only making $15 an hour in California. I believe $17, or $18 an hour is more than fair. We work extremely hard to make every customers experience memorable. We take care of the cafe, and run it.
Review from Sales Dept
I'm only making a dollar more as a shifg lead with more resposiblies
Review from Sales Dept
no benefits at all. I was forced to take my daily break almost as soon as I came into work every day because the manager and everyone else wanted to take their lunch later even though I had JUST gotten there.

Managers are terrible, but fellow employees are decent people. We work together effectively, even when there are big rushes with no warning. My coworkers were nice and would perform what they needed to do while still being friendly.

We build friendships and those friendships make working more fun and relaxed as well with the customers we build relationships
Review from Sales Dept
Well our boss at the location is extremely caring, and nice. You can tell she wants the best for her employees, but can't afford to raise our wages. I understand to an extent, but we work very hard to keep the place running. Other than that, it's just a wonderful environment to work in.

What did you like most about the interview process?
It was quick and straight forward

They ask questions about yourself and explain what youll be doing once you start. Uniform policy was explained wonderfully.
Review from Sales Dept
Simple and fast. Just some emails and a call, then was able to start working shortly after.
Review from Sales Dept
It was fast and easy and I was hired right away
Review from Sales Dept
i got lied to, i was told I was going to be paid more, that the environemnt was like a family which it is not and that the owner actually works. I hardly ever see him.
Review from Sales Dept
What would you improve about your company's interview process?
They should start calling applicants back or communicating in general. I only got an interview because my friend worked there and told the manager directly to call me. I had applied 5 weeks prior to actually getting any response
Review from Sales Dept
Ask them work related questions and ethics

Review from Sales Dept
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
our managers/owners could give us our tips or atleast tell us where all that money goes! one morning they made 125 in tips and there was only 5 people working including the managers, thats 25 each person!
Review from Sales Dept
I think the pricing was too much for the customers
Review from Sales Dept
Better management and guidance from the owner/ manager
Review from Sales Dept
The general manager undervalues and undergrades her employees. I get cursed at and yelled at on the side and in front of customers. The work place has just become a hostile environment.
Review from Sales Dept
the manager makes my day a living hell.
