Dairy Queen Employer Reviews

This was a great job to work. Meeting different people everyday. The good thing about working here is i got to know the indian culture more.

I would go in and start my work day by clocking in getting my register set up, then i would just take orders all day. This was my first job, i learned to use a cash register and make ice cream.
Also how to carry trays without dropping food. The management and co-workers were ok, but as ingleside being a small town there was too much gossip. The hardest – more...  part of my job was making ice cream, i just could not get the hang of it. The most enjoyable was talking to the customers – less

the good ole dq, ive work there since day one, that was my first job and im still here, i love the food still and most of the times the people. it is fastfood, its nothing special, just income

Dairy Queen is a good place to work. I learned how to be more sociable, how to count money better, and how to make the products.
All the co-workers get along pretty well.

It was a fun job, especially halloween, it was very busy yet fun. Management was friendly and very good to customers and co-workers. Hardest part of the job was making waffle cones, itgot very hot in the back in the summer.

It was pretty much ran by a bunch of teenagers. I think it could've used more adults.

By working at Dairy Queen I learned many skills and they were always flexible with my schedule.

Fun place to work but the management is stingy and the help is unproductive

I had taken orders and handled money. I had prepared the orders and served the orders to the customers.

family like setting
everyone got along
i loved my manager
she trated everyone like her kids

It could be busy or a slow work day, learned how to be a better worker, management wash poor, most co-workers didnt care about there job. the hardest part of the job is keeping things organized, nothing is enjoyable at the job.

make sure all items/products are stocked. count money if needed. put apron on. re-check floor and tables for cleaniness.
greet customers, take orders, transactions, fill orders. clean up always in between up front and on the floor with tables. restock throughout, and at end of day or shift change. sweep n mop and restock.take off apron go home. the – more...  hardest part of this job, was making sure all customers were satisfied and happy. when customers were nice and happy with my service and i get praised for it, was the most enjoyable time of work. – less

Open store come in early to clean ice cream machines. Set everything up before opening doors at 11:00 AM. Decorate and make cakes. Also take care of customers and always smile keep them happy because you always want them to come back.

By far ten years later my favorite job ever. The owners I worked for were amazing. They let me at a very young age take the store over as if it were mine, I was trained in every area as to ordering budgeting and training and hiring employees. They only came in once in a while just to see how things were and if we were profiting. I learned how to balance – more...  my life and my work here. I also learned that if I was open to learning new things and taking responsibilty I can go anywhere in life. I would love to own the store I worked for as a teenager due to my personal experience. – less

So typical day by myself busy working the front counter and drive through.Worked most weekend nights (alone) closed and opened alone.

as a high school student this was the perfect job at the time, worked great with my limited hours. staff was kind & were always willing to help other staff

I worked at DQ for a few years during high school and 2 years of college!

Learning different ways to make items was always fun. I never knew there were so many ways to make one dessert. I enjoyed preparing food and the customers.

This was my first job and a great experience for customer service, and food and drink preparation. My responsibilities included opening and closing the store, setting it up for the day of work and shutting it down at night. I learned how to assemble and disassemble machinery, which shows that I am a quick learner. Staff was also in charge of making – more...  cash drops into the safe, and counting all money made at the end of the night. I am trustworthy and very experienced with handling large amounts of money. I worked as a team member and initiated and completed customer transactions quickly and accurately.

Dairy Queen was probably my favourite work environment. For the most part, the customers were friendly, and the staff worked very closely as a team. I loved my boss, and we still maintain a close relationship.

My boss at Dairy Queen was an extremely friendly guy who always made his staff feel comfortable. He rarely got upset, but when he did, there was no yelling. He would have a reasonable adult conversation to fix any problems. I felt comfortable enough to work one on one with him. Near the end of my time there he was not only my boss, but a good friend as well. He encouraged team work one hundred percent and motivated his staff to give their full effort. – less

I believe that for a starter job, or a job in which you would like to make some extra cash, learn responsibility, and even begin some small payments, then this would be a great place to start.

In terms of being a "Part Time Job" That's exactly what it is and is great for College students, and/or people whom would like to partake in possible multiple – more...  jobs.

My input on all of the details may not be the best, for i have worked here for such a short time, but i believe it is indeed a great first "Official" job for me. I hope to find a better job though, one that fits the hours and payment in which i am looking for.

To sum it up in short: "It is an easy, great starting job and a great way to earn some spare cash. However, if you are looking for more of a full time job then this may not be the job for you. No complaints" – less
