Not so sweet after all - Anonymous employee sweetgreen Employee Review

There's a lot of talk around "living the sweet life" and "doing your best work" but there's so much infrastructure to be built that it's difficult to work on strategy when the house is on fire. There is no work life balance here -- because the infrastructure is so bad, everyone works hundreds of hours to just make things work. Everyone is exhausted and overworked. The turnover is very high...I knew I wanted to leave after weeks of starting. There are many new hires that never make the 1-year mark and leave on the 1-year anniversary to just get the equity.
