Pros

work from home, supportive management, ability to move within company

Cons

- opportunities for making sales is getting harder - only get credit for a minimal amount of products from growth even though we referred the customer. - too many products rolled out without thinking about the onboarding experience - lost ability to use free trials as a way to attach more software on accounts and allow customers to see if the software is the best fit for them. This is particularly harder on inside sales reps as some restaurants have never used online ordering for example and don't have third party delivery services in the area to compare it to. - new thresholds for discounting capabilities In general, Toast has become a lot harder to sell.

Pros

The benefits and health insurance are amazing and the company culture as a whole is very positive. It was a pleasure to work with almost everyone I met in my time there.

Cons

Lower management, especially for care teams, deeply lacks integrity. Retaliatory practices, lack of communication, and failure to adhere to their own policies are very common behavior depending on who your manager is. The inconsistencies across what is expected from leadership are profound and it is disappointing how much this can derail your career trajectory at Toast. It’s also very difficult to help customers at times, as Toast is notorious for launching new products at customers and providing little to no support to agents that are then expected to troubleshoot using sparse or nonexistent resources and absolutely no training. Cross-collaboration with teams that occasionally intersect is also very challenging, particularly Sales/Onboarding and Care. There were many instances where sales and onboarding specialists set customers up with false expectations of the product, which leaves care teams to deal with the aftermath.
