Abusive hostile work environment

Pros

Seemingly good company with upward mobile options with very negative payout. Emotional distress, anxiety, and emotional burnout

Cons

Abusive management system. Work is hard, customers at times can be tough but all of that is fine, without rude, abusive managers and supervisors who constantly make you feel inadequate or are just rude hateful or abuse or daily. I’ve not worked one shift without feeling misstreated verbally and emotionally. The company’s greed means you will be stretched to the breaking point daily. Employees confirm this is normal business practice. When my store was doubling sales records upper management was still instructing store directors to cut hours in some departments. It’s math for them that results in hell for employees everyday.

A company without a mission isn't a company

Pros

There are still so many wonderful people working at the company.

Cons

Ever since the departure of CEO and co-founder Josh Hix, Plated has taken a turn for the worse. Being bought by Albertsons turned out to be a massive negative for the company. We were all so excited by the acquisition at first, but our relationship with our parent company slowly deteriorated and it's very unclear how ABS plans to utilize Plated. They bought us because we were an early food+tech disruptor but they had no idea what to do with us and therefore, nothing has been done in about 2+ years. Plated used to be an amazing place to work but the turn of events made it clear I needed to leave.

Pros

Depending on the role, compensation and work-life balance were fair and reasonable. Some good people and friends to be made here.

Cons

In a time of transition, there is no clear leadership and a lack of direction in where the product and company is going. Lack of communication and transparency. Frequent re-organizations by whatever marketing executive is currently serving out their contract. In general, there is a looming sense of dread. At its worst, culture can be petty, tribal and toxic.
