Pros

Morning hours Easy gig Free lunch

Cons

Being run by former Walmart execs. If that means anything to you stay away from this company. They want more to be made with less hands AND time. Make that make sense. Good luck getting any further in your career than a store manager without higher education. They choose "experience" on a resume over practicality. Those same "experienced" people are bringing this company down. Extremely micromanaging. Company is so poor at staffing i've worked 4 months straight till some one was hired and I finally had an off day.

Pros

Pay was pretty good, free lunch is nice, the whole foods staff were always friendly. Life and accident insurance were a nice bonus. Really easy if you've got a decent team. No late nights, great if you're a morning person. If you're willing to drive a lot, dedicate a lot of time, and manage there's probably some career opportunities. I have 0 desire to manage so I didn't do any of that.

Cons

Was overworked and micromanaged. Had days where I was scheduled to work alone with high production goals and unreasonable expectations. On days I wasn't alone, I was constantly badgered to be producing at all hours, even if we were done early, but also not to produce too much? Strange to have a job that doesn't want me to be efficient, but then demands it other times. Management kept bugging us to increase sales but there is literally nothing we can do about that, since we're just a kiosk in a whole foods and have 0 control over if people actually want to shop at whole foods that day. Also the health insurance is hilariously bad. A checkup and vaccines, and absolutely nothing else is covered.
