Yum! Brands reviews about "team"

In the last 18 months, there has been a significant shift in the core values, leadership approach, and overall environment. Cultural Shift: There has been a notable pullback on previous commitments to diversity. Initiatives and teams that were once championed are no longer supported, and public-facing communications regarding these values have been removed. Leadership and Transparency: Recent leadership changes have been managed with a focus on narrative control rather than transparency. Announcements regarding executive exits often lack the ability for open dialogue, which speaks to a broader trend in how information is shared within the organization. Organizational Health: There has been a significant turnover in the People leadership function. The current HR leadership structure appears to be more focused on operational execution rather than strategic influence. Strategic Ambiguity: While there is significant public focus on digital transformation (Byte), there is a lack of clarity regarding the actual strategy and value being delivered to franchisees, despite the associated costs.

1. Very stressful fast paced work environment (7/10 times) 2. Short staffed on many occasions leading to more stress. 3. Toxic or positive work culture depends on management team (store manager & area coach) 4. Paid leaves can sit with manager for approval which many times managers refuse to approve if its for longer periods which is unprofessional. 5. Different kinds of personalities meaning you might not always get along with everyone which is okay but some might try and make it seem like harassment and racism when it is not.

often times quite boring, could use more projects

Strict working hours, felt like no work life balance.

- Micro management, - you'll be made feel like that you are not worth anything, your works is the worst(even when you are doing great), - mental health ruined, self-confidence does downhill due to such environment, ur manager's voice will haunt you in your sleep (if u get any sleep) - tiny timelines, old code, no room for innovation in the projects, - HRs & reporting manager just fool you around if you ask for proper hike/promotions.

Yum has some issues with leadership, specifically in 2025 with the organizational changes that are currently underway. The new leadership coming in have changed the company in such a way that it feels like a wildly different company than it was in 2023 and 2024. Many of the employees are currently in a state of confusion and anxiety with the direction of the company because there is no clear path forward, and many are left wondering if their jobs are safe and what their job even is. Teams have been dissolved, restructured, and people are being laid off en masse. Another huge issue at Yum is the direction they take with the tech architecture. The general approach from upper management is "put a bandaid on it" rather than trying to fix problems the right way, even if it might take a little longer. This ends up compounding on itself, creating much bigger problems in the future, and they don't seem to care as long as they feel like the immediate problem has been resolved. I believe this approach is a large part of their current problems with restructuring - they're backtracking and paying the price on bad decisions made in the past. Management wants to be told yes, and don't want to hear, "there's a problem with this solution because of x y z". They also seem to be pushing for a return to office, so if you're looking for a remote position, this may not be the place to go.

Could move a little faster internally

unsupportive team, toxic leaders, no work life balance, expected to be available all the time round the clock
