Pros

My supervisor was nice and overall pretty talented but the higher level management at the company was extremely arrogant and thought they were better than everyone else who worked at the company.

Cons

I had high hopes joining the WEBstaurant Store but after joining the company I quickly realized I had been misled regarding my position. Overall the position was incredibly boring and I would encourage anyone who likes any form of creativity to look elsewhere. I was basically stuck in a cube, given a very aggressive quota for the amount of copy that needed to be written and was forced to follow strict guidelines writing about restaurant equipment until my fingers hurt from typing all day and my eyes burned from looking at nearly identical products all day.

Because we are online and accessible by customers 24/7, WebstaurantStore.com is a bustling place to work – one that we aim to keep fun and enjoyable! While we want everyone to have a great experience at our company, we realize that not everyone is compatible with the fast pace of an e-commerce environment, or the technical / analytic nature of some of our positions. Full job descriptions, available on our website, are designed to give applicants a feel of what a day in each position is like.

Pros

Acquired a management position. Somewhat laid back.

Cons

Toxic environment with high schooler mentality. Favoritism heavily carries over into deciding promotions and salaries. If you are a salary employee you are basically a slave. They tend to hire young people to be higher ups. Which provides good opportunity but the trickle down effect is not good for the company.
