They are fueled with passion and believe that giving back is the key to changing lives and communities. While the service and employee quality need improvement, the organization is described as having a local and authentic presence in San Francisco. They are compared to the band playing on the sinking Titanic, providing comfort and welcome to the passengers. The reviews highlight the work of specific employees, such as Tre, who helped a customer in need. Overall, Urban Alchemy is seen as an organization trying to make a positive impact in their community, despite facing challenges in service and employee performance.
