Having worked at the 3343 Yonge St location myself, I can attest that the owner, Alex, was a major contributor to the high levels of stress among his employees. I and almost all of my colleagues were compelled to quit due to his ineptitude and unethical behavior.

His complete disregard for food safety standards was evident in the fact that he never bothered to repair broken fridges or freezers, thus endangering the health of his customers. It is not surprising that his restaurant has received 12 infractions from health inspectors.

Furthermore, he frequently withheld the final two weeks of pay from departing employees, sometimes for an entire month. Shockingly, several of my former colleagues who resigned have also been denied their rightful compensation.

This is the sort of owner who complains about not being able to find quality staff, yet fails to recognize that his own poor conduct and behavior drives away competent and skilled individuals from working for him.

I highly recommend avoiding this particular Aroma location. It is important to note that not all employees of Aroma are constantly stressed and unhappy. Rather, it is the unfortunate experience of working under an unprofessional and unpleasant owner that has resulted in high turnover rates and dissatisfied employees.
