The higher managment show no respect to staff.

Best thing
To work together with staff was great, costumers okay
Worst thing
Above the GM the staff rude, picky, arrogant. Training from the company is online and they don’t care about it.
Role includes lots of tasks to do, and they are not paying well. Promising everything to keep the staff, but they can keep the promise so the staff leaving and there is a high rotation too.
Food is not bad, pizza and pasta from frozen ingredients- not worth a penny.
They are not paying sick leaves (just SSP) not easy to change the schedules as the staff is limited. Most young staff doesn’t care about the job ( they come in to work when they want - no consequences as they need a staff, lots of staff tired to cover and overworked)
One of the worst company where I worked.
They showing on social media everything what is good, but inside is the opposite.Zizzi Assistant manager, January 2023

Zizzi Supervisor, June 2022

Best thing
The majority of customers are respectful and understanding when things get really busy and short staffed. They’re friendly and not all of them will leave a tip but don’t let that bother you. Because the real reward is getting to interact and bond with customers. For example, giving them small compliments. It’s rare to come across customers who are rude, aggressive, or the typical Karen who demands to speak to the manager.
Worst thing
Unpaid breaks, and not all the team members you work with will like you or give you an easy time. Managers may be difficult to work with and may blame you for not doing something on time or doing something else when you weren’t told to. Every day is different.
Improper training. I’ve been at my current job for nearly 2 months and I still haven’t been trained on packing takeaways or making drinks or answering the phone for bookings.
And I still haven’t had a 1:1 with one of the managers. I need to know what I’m doing well and what I still need to work on. They don’t give the time of day to conduct these. To at least check on your employees and their performance.Zizzi Front of house staff, June 2022

Best thing
free food.
extra money from the tronc thing.
kitchen team are nice and caring.
Worst thing
bad dishwashing machine which would sometimes leak or not work so I have to hand wash and mop the floor every minute (leads to overload in the pit). very unsafe.
manager doesn't do anything about the problems that I would mention.
sometimes understaffed which means I will have to do jobs I'm not supposed to e. g. polishing cutlery.

Best thing
The team. Meals on shift. Interacting with different people every day.
Worst thing
Not enough staff. Too much emphasis on labour costs and not focusing on customer experience. No time to be a manager have to be on the floor constantly.
