She talks down to people. She has booed us in a zoom meeting. She has raised her voice. Some of the managers are aware of the situation but they're unable to do anything. They're not her manager.

After finally scheduling an interview, im able to sit down with the manager and owner. Great interview, I genuinely enjoyed how their staff interacted, and how they ran the business. Then, the kicker. “This position is actually $11 an hour, about $17 an hour with tips”. NEVER in my experience, are tips genuinely a good salary boost. Especially in this line of business, as bakeries get extremely slow after the holidays. Even during my interview, which took about an hour, only a few customers walked in the door.
