"A Brooklyn location of the national pizza franchise employs Shantel Walker, who after nearly 20 years on the job joined worker activism amid the city's prosecutions of some franchisees for wage theft; several franchisees faced jail time and the owner she worked for was fined $800,000. Walker emphasizes that beyond low pay there are widespread problems like discrimination, retaliatory scheduling and pay cuts, and abusive treatment by managers, and she advocates for more equitable wages and worker protections." - Daniela Galarza
