Pros

Laid back environment Free lunches Flexible Schedule

Cons

MASSIVE amounts of immaturity Incredibly cliquey "Rotational" training is unfair and not properly explained from day 1. Management is young, inexperience, and unprofessional. 60 day probationary period includes having to discover things that they didn't train you on - and if you don't discover these ins-and-outs of the site on your own, they put you down personally and make you feel inadequate not only as an employee but also as a person. It doesn't matter how hard you work - if they don't like you as a person, they will make sure you don't stick around. I worked 9+ hour days the last 30 days at the company and I was told I was not "an excellent employee" and didn't meet their "excellent employees only" requirement. Discussion with upper management about your concerns puts a target on your back - as soon as you complain or voice your concerns you should just turn in your resignation. My first manager did not tell me I was not performing up to standards, by the time my 2nd manager spoke to me, I was 30 days in and it was too late to catch up. Might be good for a young person right out of college, but if you have any professional experience, STAY AWAY. They do not function as a professional company, and I felt like I was back in college with the mentality of the majority of the employees. It felt like pledging a sorority or fraternity.

Because of the bustling nature of e-commerce, WebstaurantStore employees get to experience a lot of different, real, situations within their training period. Many employees in a rotational position find that they enjoy the variety of getting to try out multiple departments and see where their skill sets fit the best. Regular meetings between employees and their supervisors during this training process are designed both for employees to receive feedback, and also to express any needs they may have in regard to learning new roles in the most effective way possible.
