  Employee at YO! Sushi, June 2025

• Best thing

  Great team, free meal on shift, can be a fun work environment.

  Worst thing

  Rude and impatient customers, sometimes didn't get rota until day before, upper management had no idea the stress we were under. Sometimes would only be me on front of house managing nearly a full restaurant alone. Tips were shared amongst everyone, which meant some weeks you'd be getting paid £40 in tips despite working very hard!

  Team manager at YO! Sushi, April 2023

• Best thing

  Early finishes
  A free meal in your break, if you even have time for a break.

  Worst thing

  They expect you to do a work load for 3-4 workers but expect you to work on your own. You don’t get time for a break so you can finish on time. They expect you to have the fridge full by 12 pm but on your own but that’s imposible.
  The company are awful at communication, if you email them about something you will be lucky to here back from them within a month.

  They expect so much from you but give so little back. It’s not worth the stress at all.
