Papa Murphy's Employer Reviews

I enjoyed taking peoples orders and greeting them with a warming smile. I would Always have a positive attitude.

it can be a labor intensive job, but it is consistent work, and my management made it easy to schedule day i needed off, excluding major sales holidays.

Well to start off. I got this job through a friend. Things where good at the beginning and I though that I would advance in this job really fast. I was wrong! Every time I was told that I'd be getting a pay raise, I would ask when. So I got passed up on my first pay raise, then two months went by and I asked again when they were going to evaluate me – more... on my performance. They keep telling me that they would do this when they had time, so I got held up on my pay raise again for another two months. So I was getting feed up with this and fast. So I saved up my last few pay checks and started doing my GED. – less

Typical day you would clean the kitchen, make pizzas, and answer phone calls.

You work very hard and are very tired when done but the sense of accomplishment makes it worth it.

This was my first job, I learned a lot of my hard work ethic here. Working with the public, and keeping up rules and regulations

Making Pizzas was the most enjoyable

A typical day at work. Get to work on time, change into work shirt, clock in, and dig into whatever work needs to be done. Enjoy the day in the friendly atmosphere with new and exciting people everyday.

Start work early and would be schedualed for an 8 hour shift most of the time would end up being a 10 to 12 hour shift with no compensation for the extra hours. I learned how to be respectful to people and how to deal with unruly and often rude customers in a polite manner. My manager was great, unreplaceable but the owners could use alot of work. I – more... just felt like they didn't care much for their employees. We hardly ever got breaks and almost no time for lunch. – less

A typical day was to put together telephone orders and handle food.

I learned patience with training other co-workers.
Managment wasn't very reliable.
Co-workers were very dramatic in what they did.

The hardest part of the job was to remember food recipes.

The most enjoyable part of the job was to talk with and help out the customers, new or the – more... weekly regulars. – less

I enjoyed working for the company. They treat you with respect and are flexiable to your life. This is a good job for any teenager or student. There is room for advancement if you have the willingness to learn.

A lot to do. Many hours at least 50 to 55 hours a week. You do a little bit of everything in your job.

Fast paced environment with demanding, yet fun duties. Diverse range of duties, including prepping food, managing cash registers, preparing pizzas and other food items, cleaning, washing dishes. Great way to build experience in many areas.

A typical day at work would be making pizzas, handling money transaction, dishes, cleaning, sweeping, mopping and closing down the store. You learn how to make pizzas and count down registers. The store manager is a good manager but the assistant manager can be very lazy and make it very hard to be able to finish the duties set out for you because you – more... have to finish his work that he did not do. Some co-workers are lazy forcing you to do all the work but others are very productive making it easier to get everything done. The hardest part of the job is having to try and close as fast as possible even if the store has been busy all night. The most enjoyable part of the job is that they work with your schedule. – less

Typical day at work: Generally play role of "sauce & cheese" which is pretty much the engine of the pizza line that keeps everything running smooth and making sure orders are correct and everything is done in a timely fashion. Work days also include: ringing up customers on the register, cleaning, dishes, and always being positive and providing excellent – more... customer service.

What i learned: Superior customer service skills, leadership skills, good work ethics.

Management: The franchisee is really the only manager, does a great job with the store.

Coworkers: Generally younger coworkers, friendly people, some haven't developed a good sense of work ethic yet though, because we hire at age 14. When i train new employees in, I try to help them develop better work ethics.

Hardest part: Taking complaints from customers

Most enjoyable: Relaxed work environment. Discount on pizzas! – less

I started out as a supervisor here being my first job and 2 years later, moved up to management. I loved working here! The district manager and everyone is very supportive and helps you become the best that you can be!

I REALLY ENJOYED WORKING AT PAPA MURPHYS YOU HAD TO BE VERY FAST. BUT IM VERY ENERGETIC ANY WAYS SO IT WAS NOTHING FOR ME. IF I COULD I WOULD WORK THERE AGAIN.

A typical day at work involves helping others, team leading, management inventory, and customer service.

I started at only 16 years old and moved up to management in just a few months. The job is never anything too demanding, and is always an up-beat fun atmosphere to be in! im sad that my moving away for college is forcing me to seek employment elsewhere.

co-workers are friendly, fast paced during busy season, slow when it's summer, can be laid back at times, managers are have similar duties as other employees

Little room for career advancement. Managers would train you for higher roles but hire from inside, rarely promote from within. Lack of team work.
