Vantaggi

Compensation is very competitive for designers. Triad style way of working in R&D gives design influence in product decisions. Lots of challenging problems to solve. Great benefits.

Svantaggi

It feels very lonely here. Everyone takes the work and themselves very seriously and don't spend much time getting to know each other as people. As a designer, there isn't really a design culture to speak of because teams work in silos and don't talk to each other. Morale has been low because of reorgs, priority changes and lack of clarity from junior and senior leadership. I hear engineers say they aren't happy but won't leave because the pay is good. That really shouldn't be what your teammates are saying to you as the only reason for staying.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback! It's never easy to read tough feedback but it's always appreciated to hear a direct and constructive perspective. I love your focus on building efficient teams that can deliver great work to customers and wanting to do more there. I also love your focus on building the right design culture where we break silos, connect the dots, and drive end to end experiences while having fun together (something that's close to my heart). I am happy to share more internally about the work we're doing and continue to do to grow together as a team. Feel free to ping me directly to chat, I'd love to make time to go through this a bit in depth and get your thoughts on the path forward! - Jehad Affoneh, Chief Design Officer

Vantaggi

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.

Svantaggi

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.
