1.) poor/nonexistent communication

1.) poor/nonexistent communication
(Communication within this company was terrible all the way around. Little to no notice before meetings, not giving thorough instructions to new employees being hired on, etc.)

2.) understaffed
(in some locations managers were having to do at least 2-3 jobs in addition to their own)

3.) Untrained/under trained employees
(from what I have observed, cooks especially are not being trained properly on proper food handling procedures. Managers NEED to be trained on these procedures as well.)

PROPERLY TRAIN YOUR COOKS, AND MANAGERS, ON SAFE FOOD HANDLING PROCEDURES!!!!! Not doing so is putting your company at risk for potentially making MANY people sick.

Also, why does it not seem like your office personnel communicates with each other??? It has taken more than a month for me to receive my last paycheck from you (35 days before it was put in the mail). I would have stopped by your offices, but I no longer live in that state. HR should have communicated with payroll which people were no longer employees so that those paychecks could be mailed instead of sitting in the safe of one of your locations for weeks. It felt like I was having to do your office personnel's jobs for them just to get the money owed to me.

If I could have given you 0 stars I would. I would discourage anyone with a good sense of team work and proper work practices from applying to this company. This is the worst company I have ever worked for.
