Pros

The company is growing and there are lots of opportunities for you to advance your career if that is something you're after. I feel honored to work for such a great company and I'm surrounded by smart people with a great culture. I would say that Toast is not perfect. No company is, the one thing I am always impressed with is that toast has a lot of transparency and we are continuously getting better as we learn from ourselves.

Cons

The compensation is reasonable, but I think there are opportunities for Toast to be just a little bit more competitive.

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.
