Good first job experience, not a career choice.
Team Member (Current Employee), Groveport, OH – June 14, 2013
Pros: half-off food, getting to work with fun people
Cons: no breaks unless you smoke
In the past year that I have worked at Tim Hortons I have had 3 different managers come and go. I'm a reliable and responsible worker but have never been given a raise. My coworkers are great people and so are the customers. The management and communication of the store is not very good. I learned that sometimes you have to work under people that you – more... may be smarter than. – less

Cashier/Customer Service Rep. - Shelby Twp (Former Employee), Shelby Township, MI – June 13, 2013
Cons: unpaid holiday or vacation time. no benefits at all.
Every day routine for me was to come in, wash my hands, put on a hair net, and begin duties at my sandwich station. I learned how to make all kinds of food in under 20 seconds. My manager and co-workers were pretty awesome. The hardest part of the job was making food during breakfast time, we got at least 120 cars through drive the drive through window – more... in a single hour. the Most enjoyable part was The end of the day, other co-workers and I would hang out or just simply go to the gym. – less

A typical day at work would consist of pouring coffee, making sandwiches, and being friendly. I learned how to take temperatures of various foods and what temperature they should be. My co-workers were fun we had many office parties. There was no hard part of this job, the most enjoyable part was meeting new people and putting a smile on there face.

Great place to work
Customer Service (Current Employee), Roseville, MI – June 11, 2013
The company is wonderful for me. The morning shift is always busy and makes the time go by fast. I have learned that everyone needs to be respected customer and fellow employees, when we work together it can be so much more fun and productive. My co-workers are great they have brought me in like a family member. The hardest part of my job has to be – more... trying to learn all the different drinks. The most enjoyable part would have to be the smell of donuts every morning. – less

Baker, Overnight store front (Current Employee), Buffalo, NY – May 29, 2013
This job is very flexible around your schedule, making it very easy to balance work, school, and family. The pace is always fast and there is a lot of multi-tasking involved, which makes the time go by seamlessly.

Baker/Dough Maker (Former Employee), Fremont, OH – May 18, 2013
Pros: free food.
Cons: very stressful work place.
A typical day at work consisted of being fast paste and clean. While working at Tim Hortons i learned how to bake donuts and bread products. The co-workers there are good at what they do and have decent communication skills, the managment isn't the greatest but they get their job done but have low communication skills. The hardest part of the job was – more... dealing with complex customers, the enjoyable part was you get free drinks and food but only to a minimum. – less

Work place was fun, fast, friendly, and the coffee the best along with the food.
General Store Manager (Former Employee), Flint, MI – May 16, 2013
Pros: free food, abiltity to constantly learn new things.
Cons: owner's of franchise didn't follow through with benefit package as proomised, and certain work conditions.
Oversee all facets of the business as a General Manager. I learned about what it took to run a fast food franchise. The owners were supportive where productivity was concerned, however, when it came to the benifit package offered, came up empty handed. My co-workers for the most part, they were a winning team of players. Hardest part of the job, was – more... getting the winning team together, had to weed through a lot of applicants to find individuals that had the ability to want to be a team player. The most enjoyable part was having the ability to put together a group of individuals and have everyone embrace the company values where not only did they grow, but the company grew as a result of everyone's hard work and can do attitude. – less

In America this company is not so "fresh"
Store Front Employee, Baker (Former Employee), Lambertville, MI – May 8, 2013
This job was the perfect example of how the attitudes and poor management skills of business owners can trickle down throughout the whole work environment. I have never worked in a more unprofessional and grueling place. The only good thing about this job I could possibly say is that I now know how to NOT run a business.

Fun work environment
Trainer - Newark and Bushnell's Basin (Former Employee), Newark Ny – May 7, 2013
Pros: friendly work environment
Cons: no advancement opportunities.
A typical work day varied depending on what shift I was working, which section I was working in and if I was training anyone that day or not. Typical shifts ran 6am-2pm, 2pm-10pm and 10pm- 6am. I worked all of the above. Training people was always my favorite part of the day.
