ATTENTION E+ROSE Customers!
As a former employee of this cafe, I feel that I am obligated to disclose some of the.. less than honest policies that happen behind the scenes.
E+Rose on 10th ave south has had an ongoing insect/roach problem for months. This has been brought to the attention of the general manager, assistant manager, and regional managers by me personally, as well as plenty of other employees that have acknowledged the problem. I have heard testimony of employees being told “it’s not a big deal” and that “they’ll figure it out”. Well.. it’s been months and yet we have no solution.
E and Rose also prides itself on sourcing LOCAL and ORGANIC ingredients. What if I were to tell you that almost the entirety of the store is supplied by SYSCO and US Foods, the prior being based in Houston, and the two combined supply roughly >80% of all US restaurants today.
As well as blatantly lying to its customer base, E+Rose sports a 3 star employee review on indeed, as well as a 39% approval rating of their CEO Robbie Wiznewski. The following is to be taken lightly since there is Minimal evidence compared to the previous accusations, but E+Rose practices a VERY loosely interpreted employee discipline protocol. E+Rose seemingly “protects its own” and have received plentiful complaints regarding favoritism within the workplace. As well as wrongful dismissal (yes I understand we are an “at will” state so it isn’t technically wrongful dismissal.. but it would be anywhere else).
I write this to add some transparency to a company otherwise built on lies. Thank you for taking the time to read this if you got to the end! Protect your health people!
P.S. if you want real, sustainable food.. go to your local formers market or butcher. :)
