Ratings and reviews

The app functions great for scheduling. Easy to learn and intuitive. There are a couple quirks that annoy me. When changing a shift, rarely will a person qualified for the shift be in suggested in the drop down. For instance, changing a manager shift, hosts and dishwashers show up but zero management. This , in the grand scheme is minor, but frustrating nonetheless.

Intrusive. Cluttered. Full of pushes to get you to take their payday advance. Seems to cater to teenagers, not adults working real jobs. No, I don't want to compliment a coworker in the app, and I don't want to get any either. I'm usually a pretty positive person, but this app just gives me the ick, bad. This is some participation trophy level nonsense rolled up in an ad for predatory payday loans.

Up until now the app has been relatively good, but one of the recent updates completed screwed up message notifications on Android. I never get notifications for chat messages and have to manually open the app to check. Also I have noticed huge battery drain due to constant wakelocks and the app staying open in the background all the time, and I have to force quit the app to stop it. I have already tried reinstalling the app and the problems persist.
