fun co-workers terrible management
Prep/Cook (Former Employee), Fort Saskatchewan, AB –
Pros: kitchen manager did her best to be fair
Cons: selfish management
The kitchen was fun and it was fast paced, but not absolutely overwhelming. My co-worker friends were wonderful, but it is a very malicious and dramatic place to work, rumours and gossip. The GM and owner are very selfish. For Christmas we got bar glasses from the storage room and $25 gift cards for...Boston Pizza. So he knows the money will come back – more...  to him. When he needs to hire more workers he cuts the hours of his current employees so that he can break even. The GM does not care about trying to help the front staff get the time off they need. There is no moving up or position changes. When people ask to become a server instead, the GM will say they don't need anyone currently but will let you know, then 4 days later there are new servers at the front. They tell you in the interview that you "move up." this isn't true. You keep the same position and wage for 7years. You have to ask for a raise that you deserve 3 and 4 times before you get it. Health benefits are there but not enough, it has to be backed up with blue cross. – less

Boston Pizza is a very bad place to work and eat.
Kitchen Manager (Former Employee), Brooks, Alberta –
Pros: learned not to eat there.
Cons: i met some good friends.
All food that BPs uses comes in bags to save costs, bagged, pre-cooked eggs is the worst thing I had every seen in 15 yrs of resturant work. Toast that comes in boxes, pre-buttered... Thats not food and the people the work there need no cooking experience because they don't have to cook anything. Managment is the worst, because the work long hours for – more...  very poor money. 60+ hr work weeks, every week, $45 - $50,000/yr... please,
The only thing I learned about working at BPs was to never eat there, and get out of the resturant industry as fast as I could. It's been almost 7yrs since I worked for a BPs and leaving was the best thing I every could have done. Since then I made over double in one yr then I did at a BPs. cleaner over $80,000. – less

Best Place to be if you love the pressure
Cook (Former Employee), Lloydminster, AB –
Pros: overtime hours
Cons: no days off
I Loved the Job. Being a Cook at Boston pizza was one of my best experience I have ever done. Workers and employes all got along good with each other, and could all work together as one team while stuck under a rush { orders that require 3 people or more} but 2 people on the a station working together got the job done

Great place for people who want to go in the cooking domain!
Cook (Former Employee), Fort McMurray –
Pros: free pizza/half pasta(still end up paying), 50% off food when you worked, 25% off every other time.
Cons: short breaks - if you do go smoke, than your lunch is 15 minutes. get sent home early, they are very rude, they don't listen !
This is a great place for someone who loves to cook at a very fast paced, with barely any breaks and being on your feet for a long period of time. For someone who wants to go in this domain as well, great place! I didn't like working here because people were rude, they don't listen to your personal opinion on where you want to work. You also don't put – more...  in your full 40 hours for full-time. If they send you home because it is busy, you can't argue to stay longer. What would happen if someone had a family to take care of and working at Boston Pizza and getting sent home early almost every day, how would you manage? People are just very rude!!! – less
