Compass Group reviews

Too much work for one person. You have a constant flow of pots, pans, colanders etc in the kitchen when it's used by a chef on top of getting a flow of over 200 students bringing on average 2 plates, 1 cup and 2 utensils. Oh did i mention that you have to put all those now clean cookware and dishes away wall still getting dirty dishes coming in and pots and pans being brought to you to clean and you have to do this cause other wise you wouldn't have space to clean the dishes that need to be cleaned. This job at minimum is made for 2 people not one person and the pay isn't worth it unless they double it. Also they make you sign a paper that states that you will pay for their partner companies non slip shoes by taking it out of your check even if you already have new ones that are much cheaper and if your a newer worker you have to have your boss there to clock you in and out and it's so annoying because he's never on time for either and "doesn't like to be rushed". This job really takes all your energy away and hurts your body to the point that you can't do anything at home unless it's recovering. Oh also they don't have proper dish washer gloves and give you the flimsy latex gloves that break easy. OMG I forgot the kicker, THEY DON'T GIVE YOU TRAINING SO YOUR JUST THROWN INTO ALL THIS MESS OFF THE BAT NOT KNOWING WHERE THINGS GO AND YOU HAVE TO ASK THE OTHER WORKERS THAT ARE TRYING TO DO THEIR JOBS BECAUSE YOUR BOSS IS OFF DOING I DON'T KNOW WHAT. There is a lot more cons trust me.

There were a lot of employees who were furloughed and it wasn't communicated to the rest of the company leaving many teams wondering who to contact to continue projects. Those who escaped being furloughed had their pay cut for an undetermined amount of time. This made it difficult for certain households. Leadership was inconsiderate and lacked empathy during that time and avoided any questions or comments during All Hands meetings. There's a lack of diversity not just by race but by work styles, ideas, troubleshooting approaches, communication, etc. Low- and middle-level managers were not accepting of people who didn't think and work just like them. Those who didn't fit the mold were held back for promotions and stretch projects. Obnoxious amount of meetings and 80% of the time is dedicated to chit chat/unrelated to work. There's no strategy from the top down. So a lot of teams are working in silos. The louder the team's leader, the more likely their strategy wins out over the other teams the work with. We also would create a "strategy" once or twice a year and never look at it again. No KPIs, goals, or way to see if we were successful or not. US employees do not get a PTO pay out when they resign. It's legal but unethical because you earn PTO every month.
