hello, thank you for your review. we never want anyone to feel like this. giving our people more hours than they want or are contracted to is not something we promote or encourage our management teams to do. it would be really great if you could contact us at peopleservices@wagamama.com with a little more info about your experience so we can take the appropriate action to ensure this does not continue

Pros

Corporate setting with systems in place When I first started the company culture was great, everyone loved going into work

Cons

Although systems are in place, things don't work half the time, whether it's IT or equipments. Lackluster communications between all departments, making the day to day in operations more difficult than it should be.
