Working at boost was fun if you made friends, but also it got very stressful very quickly if you work at one of the busier stores. While it would be laid back and enjoyable sometimes, overall the experience was not very fulfilling or enjoyable as it became repetitive. Good if you want job experience.

Pros

Free drink at the end of your shift

Cons

Paid the bare minimum wage

Good place to work while in high school

Team member (Former Employee) - Ashfield NSW - 18 November 2022

It's a good place to work as a teenager as they only have shifts during the day and often give out short shifts of around 3-5 hours. Managers try to skimp out on giving 10 minute breaks. Pay is low compared to other jobs.

Pros

One free boost a week

Cons

Can be understaffed during unexpected busy times

Convenient for a highschool student

Boostie (Former Employee) - Parramatta NSW - 4 November 2022

The work environment is suitable for younger employees and is a typical fast-food workplace. Mostly busy so the work hours didn't feel long and time consuming.

Pros

One free drink per shift

Cons

sticky

Terrible work place, people always quiting due to bad management and rude staff

Boost Team Leader (Former Employee) - Toowoomba QLD - 29 March 2022

It was a very demanding job that resulted with no benefits and underpayment. Breaks were never given correctly (would receive proper amounts of breaks for hours worked). Management is poor and rostering is difficult to read. Would not listen to concerns or give you time off when asked well in advance. Instead give you shifts specifically when you couldn’t work and expect you to be there or take it into responsibility yourself to find someone to cover. Always hiring due to staff quiting regularly. Would not appreciate you or your work and expect more that what’s required. Owner is rude and doesn’t value his employees.

Pros

Nil

Cons

Long hours, No breaks, Underpayment, Rude management, No benefits whatsoever, No discount or free things.

Fun workplace however horrible managers and pay

Boostie (Former Employee) - Sydney NSW - 21 February 2022

I personally loved working at boost juice and getting to know new people in the beginning but the management and store ethics were horrible it ruined the job. The pay is ridiculously bad and you don’t get paid weekend or public holiday rates which is pathetic I think. Wouldn’t recommend working at boost unless you’re desperate

Pros

- making new friends - easy

Cons

- horrible management - bad pay - overwork you

competitive and overall pushes workers to work harder and better which creates personal growth.

Boostie (Current Employee) - Macquarie Park NSW - 21 February 2022

I think it's super easy as soon as you get used to the job and if you do well compared to others you can make advancements like getting a better wage and more.

Pros

free drink after shift and getting laundry fees for free.

Cons

limited shifts when you first start.

fun but you're underpaid

Boostie (Current Employee) - Northland Shopping Centre VIC - 4 February 2022

It's good for beginners but definitely only use it for job experience and find a job with actually good pay and penalty rates. Other than that, it's a pretty fun job for the most part.

Pros

fun environment

Cons

underpaid, no penalty rates

Fun, fast-paced

Part Time Team Member (Former Employee) - Robina Town Centre QLD - 31 October 2021

Great for a first job. Very good training and super fun interview. At the beginning, management were super nice and friendly, however around the end of my time at Boost, management became more demanding and unkind. Staff discount is pretty good, however the pay is not great for under 16. Nice team members and clear jobs/responsibility. Overall, taught me a lot for future jobs.

Pros

Discount, fun culture

Cons

Short hours, low pay

Fun first time job with flexible hours

Boostie (Former Employee) - Canberra ACT - 15 February 2021

Working at boost for three years the store I went through went through 3 managers. But the environment and people I worked with was A++. Easy work with decent pay. Great first job, but really depends on the store you work at.

Pros

Free drink and culture

Cons

High turnover rate

terrible management, great multi-tasking experience

Boostie (Former Employee) - Brisbane brookside - 15 February 2021

the job itself was a great high school/uni student job for a good amount of work and life balance, fun job, make great friends, cute uniform and good music to work to. however, boost stores are owned by franchisees and everything is determined around how good the franchisee is. i've seen too much responsibility placed on young boosties when management should be doing it themselves. over working without pay. firing/ghosting workers when they get 'too old = expensive.' i understand owning a small franchise is expensive, but taking cheap shortcuts, giving young workers more hours, cutting older worker's hours and not paying overtime is not the way to go. also i'm pretty sure i didn't get super, nor did my co-workers. great experience though and gained good interpersonal skills.

Pros

free medium boost, each shift

Cons

poor management

Very bad management, terrible hours, bad pay

Employee (Current Employee) - Miranda NSW - 20 June 2020

Only good first job for the experience to get better jobs down the road. Hours were extremely long, I worked about 10 hours on Saturday every week for about a month as well as 5 hours on Thursday. I did numerous shifts over 7 hours multiple times during the week with only a half hour break. The pay is very bad considering it gets very busy and you are always on your feet. Management is bad, always yelling at the staff and complaining. The team leaders also made the younger staff do everything while they went on their phones.

Pros

Good music, great girls to work with

Cons

Very long hours, extremely bad pay, terrible management

Working at boost is a lively and fun environment, however there are little to none benefits - min. wage and Xmas parties YOU pay for. The team is fun and making smoothies is fairly simple, however management can be troublesome if you aren't liked enough to be given "prime" shifts.
