snake pit and rampant dishonesty - Public Relations Subway Employee Review

Too many cons to count so I’ll name a few that stand out. New CEO brought in to clean house has done just that courtesy of 3 RIFs in the past 6 months. He’s bringing in his old BK cronies one by one and getting rid of old mgmt. Old or new, doesn’t matter, the brand is broken beyond repair and the sr execs running the show don’t have a clue on how to fix. Let’s bring back $5 ft long even though franchisees don’t make money off it. Less than 2 weeks later and millions spent on ads, they’ve canned the promo because it was a total failure. So aside from not listening to franchisees, the place is run by dishonest execs, one of whom told me my job was safe from cuts (and even gave me a larger work space if you can believe that) only to then call me and tell me my position was eliminated. Also, new chief insights officer has been there since Feb and has zero achievements to show of. But I’m sure he’s making nice bank. The politics are a whole other story. So I’ll wrap up by saying that unlike some companies where HR sometimes reads and responds to these types of posts, I don’t imagine I’ll get a reply because the person responsible for reason these has probably already been let go too. Good luck and hope Chidsey finds a good buyer to clean the rest of the broken house.
