Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re really pleased to hear that the flexibility of a zero‑hours contract and the opportunity to work in a premium league environment have been positives for you. We’re sorry to learn that your experience at the base level hasn’t been as well‑managed as it should be, and that you haven’t seen the progression opportunities you were hoping for. This isn’t the experience we want for any of our team members. Your comments are important to us, and we’ll be sharing them with the relevant managers so we can understand where improvements can be made. If you’d like to discuss your experience in more detail, we’d really welcome the opportunity. Please feel free to reach out to us directly so we can support you further. Thank you again for your contribution and for being part of the team.

Pros

Aramark Higher Education offers a competitive benefits package as well as competitive pay for the hospitality industry.

Cons

When employed at a contracted site it can be difficult to manage some of the "red tape" of the larger corporation.
