Wendy's Employee Reviews for Food Preparer

"No leadership or team effort!"

What do you like about working at Wendy's?

"I loved cooking in the kitchen and preparing the prep and setting up the line in the morning. I loved working with the crew when I first got there. Later management changed and they hired a lot minorities, and I became the minority."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"Don't ask them if they are fast like my previous manager did. Ask them real hands on questions on how they will deal with different situations. Give a scenario of a customer/employee conflict or manager/employee conflict or employee/employee conflict and ask them how they would handle that situation; what they would do. How would they resolve the situation?"

What don't you like about working at Wendy's?

"I hated the new management. They were lousy. They never showed up on time for work and I was left out there waiting for them, they sat in the office all day and when we did have a good manager that ran a good shift and worked well with the crew and led a good team, they left to go to a different store."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"I suggest that you screen all your managers very thoroughly and train your manager to do the same with your crew. I also suggest putting your managers through a very thorough management training program. And, don't just hire anyone who walks off the street, follow up on references."
