  • Best thing

    The best things about my job are mostly the perks about working there.

    Worst thing

    The worst things about working there are dealing with rude customers, having to maintain a positive and professional attitude when working short staff, I am a team trainer, but I work as a manger. I am very much underpaid, and sometimes the drama in the group chat or at work are too much where the customers get to witness some of it.

    Shift leader at Taco Bell, June 2025

    5.4

    Team member at Taco Bell, May 2025

  • Best thing

    I don't know honestly. I have good days and bad days but it just depends on what kind of "mood" I am in.

    Worst thing

    Honestly the managers. (Higher ups). Have the time it doesn't feel like they know what they are doing, they just go with the flow and sometimes that doesn't work, and it gets frustrating for us employees.

    4.0

    Manager at Taco Bell, April 2025

  • Best thing

    There’s some interesting people that come and go and stories to tell form these people and experiences. I’m sure every manager has different ways of doing things that can affect how you are treated at work. The core values of Taco Bell as a whole I would say are pretty basic and understandable. It’s not too difficult to learn.

    Worst thing

    Short staffing, stress, rude customers, corporate not understanding the stress they create for workers on the floor.
