Loved my team! The internship program, not so much
I loved my team and the work I did at Toast. The Boston office is fantastic, and I felt like I had a place there.
The Internship/Co-Op program itself does not exist. There are a few Zooms here and there, and the people who run it do not care about the interns that much. You are better off skipping them, in my opinion.
One problem that Toast has is that it is becoming increasingly bureaucratic. This stifles innovation and has slowed down almost every project my team has had. If that does not bother you, then I suppose it is okay.
A considerable amount of tech debt and infrastructure that is not scalable or requires stupid workarounds for complex but common problems. Another common characteristic of growing or transitioning midsize companies.

Toast Interview Experiences
Software Engineer (Internship)
Quick and simple process. It starts with a Hacker Rank, then an HR screen, and then, about a month later, there was a Superday with an hour technical, straight into an hour behavioral.
Software Engineer (Internship)
Easy OA on Codility, then a quick phone screen with the recruiter, and then a final onsite with engineers. It was a quick and effective process. I heard back with an offer a day after my final interview.

The interview process was very poor and uncoordinated. It included a cold email, a phone interview, and a virtual panel interview. My interviews did not guide me to a solution. Instead, they felt more like an interrogation rather than collaboration.
