Pros

I had amazing co-workers that I miss working with.

Cons

I've waited months to write this review because I wanted to be fair and level-headed with my words. Driven Brands is the most toxic place I have ever worked in my life. In my nearly two years with this company, I saw countless hardworking, innovative & all around good people fired at random. Favoritism runs deep here and the executives are a bunch of frat boys with the exception of 1 who was actually great (he retired suddenly and out of the blue). It does not matter how hard you work or how much productivity you bring to the table, it is 100% a popularity contest where very few actually deserving people are promoted. You are expected to be "on" 24/7 with a low-ball salary and the fear that your job can be taken from you at anytime. My team and I actually bonded over fear for our jobs and stress over the culture we were living in everyday. The CEO is absolutely horrendous. Beyond inflicting a culture of fear, favoritism and corruption to his employees and franchisees, he is also a terrible human being. I urge anyone considering working here to please take all of these reviews seriously. I promise you that the decline in your mental health and physical health is not worth this place.
