Pros

Toast has some really great talent, and outstanding individuals that are genuinely kind, helpful, intelligent, solution-oriented, and go-getters. There are ample resources in terms of Sales Enablement (applicable non sales related roles there is in-depth training available to any role here at Toast). Colleagues are more than willing to lend a helping hand, answer questions, and go outside of their assigned responsibilities to help each other out and help our customers out

Cons

In recent months since the company has gone public, the culture has turned less supportive and more micro managerial in sales specifically. The work life balance is constantly preached but only achievable for consistent overperformers.

Thank you for sharing this review, and for your many years as a dedicated Toaster. I love to see that you've enjoyed our development programs and that you feel supported by your team! I know things have changed as we've grown, but I am disappointed to hear that you've felt less supported. We've been dedicated to providing more development opportunities for employees, especially as we continue to scale. I'd love to learn more about where you think we're missing the mark. I'd encourage you to set up time with me, your manager, or your people success partner so that we can discuss further. Joe Starzec, VP of Sales

Pros

The benefits and health insurance are amazing and the company culture as a whole is very positive. It was a pleasure to work with almost everyone I met in my time there.

Cons

Lower management, especially for care teams, deeply lacks integrity. Retaliatory practices, lack of communication, and failure to adhere to their own policies are very common behavior depending on who your manager is. The inconsistencies across what is expected from leadership are profound and it is disappointing how much this can derail your career trajectory at Toast. It’s also very difficult to help customers at times, as Toast is notorious for launching new products at customers and providing little to no support to agents that are then expected to troubleshoot using sparse or nonexistent resources and absolutely no training. Cross-collaboration with teams that occasionally intersect is also very challenging, particularly Sales/Onboarding and Care. There were many instances where sales and onboarding specialists set customers up with false expectations of the product, which leaves care teams to deal with the aftermath.
