Worst Place I've Ever Worked - Food Service Supervisor Summit Food Service Employee Review

Pros

Pay is weekly, but that's the only pro

Cons

When I worked there, they wouldnt hire anyone at more than $12, which is not even remotely enough considering you don't get more than a quick smoke break here and there, and often you're left alone with as many as 4 inmates at a time. The inmates are usually pretty okay, but that doesnt mean something wont happen. In the six months I was there, seven people quit, and they only hired one person to replace them. So the four (4) employees that were left were stuck with every single shift. At that point, we were all expected to work seven days a week, as we only had two people for morning shift (4am-12pm) and two people for night shift (12pm-8/9pm). There was absolutely no training. Nothing about how to handle emergency situations, the inmates, or your own safety. The only thing protecting you from the four inmates you're supposed to be watching is your shiftmate (if they hadn't left to do their own thing) and a button on the wall that may or may not be near you when something happens. Absolutely awful place to work, and I left when they started scheduling me to work seven days a week on night shift and help cover people's days off on the morning shift.

Pros

Decent pay and great coaching and leadership from my former supervisor.

Cons

My former District Manager was treated very badly by senior management, resulting in his unplanned resignation, after years of dedicated service. He was a very caring and professional leader who was experiencing personal issues, but senior management failed to provide him with the support he needed, so he resigned. I have spoken to several of my peers, and they recognized the same lack of caring for our former boss. Since his departure, our team has struggled with uncaring and disengaged replacement managers.
