Former Employee – worked at Einstein Bros. Bagels full-time for more than 3 years

Pros – Great Hours
Many Regular Guests
Amazing Free Coffee
Above average pay

Cons – Prices change every period
Switching in policies regularly including bonus, insurance, and vacation
Horrible corporate management, new roll outs canceled mid way, no communication, procedures changed constantly

Advice to Senior Management – Step into and run a store for a quarter. Look around. Write down what's broken. Fix it. Broken coolers, broken freezers, crumbling walls, over flowing grease traps, leaking ceilings, just to name a few. And this isn't even just my store. This is the entire area. Favoritism also runs rampant. Low performing stores are given leeway because of who runs them while high performing stores like mine are ignored or made to work harder to counter act. All corporate looks at the bottom line. It's black and white. But we can not compete with places like Panera Bread when our dinning room smells worse than our mens room.

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend – I'm not optimistic about the outlook for this company
