Pros

Worked with some fun people and met some of my closest friends there.

Cons

Very toxic work environment, management and head office staff we feared by the staff instead of inspired. Did not enjoy that. Management also tended to turn a blind eye to real workplace issues.

Pros

Some staff were genuinely friendly.

Cons

- You’re expected to be a cookie-cutter employee with no voice. If you ask questions, show initiative, or express concerns, you risk “rubbing management the wrong way”. - Dave Prior, the regional, handles feedback and staff communication extremely poorly. Concerns he claimed were “ongoing” were never communicated once during my time there. - Termination was handled in a way that felt abrupt, avoidable, and unprofessional. I was taken outside at the end of my shift, sat on the side of a curb with no warning and no option for a support person. - Zero real coaching or development despite being told the role would be supportive and growth-focused. - Expectations are unclear, constantly shifting, and never explained directly to staff. - Leadership culture relies on assumptions instead of communication, and it creates a tense environment where staff feel scared to speak up. - What you’re promised in the interview does not match the reality once you start.
