Decent Place To Work At

Pros

Coworkers were really nice, atmosphere and the food, pay was decent, organic and hormone free food, my restaurant was very convenient in location. You get free lunch when you're working and half off when you're not, you are recognized when we perform your job well.

Cons

Doesn't give you 40 hours a week, upper management can be a pain sometimes and the work can be hard. You're expected to know everything right off the bat, took me some time to get used to all the stress. Manager would yell at us if things weren't done perfectly, felt like I was being rushed.

Pros

Co-workers became like family, great team environment. Job not monotonous, everyday brought something new and different. Challenging in a good way most of the time.

Cons

Job comes with the expectation that everyone wants to become management and eventually run their own store. The only way to keep the management happy is to constantly be pushing to move to the next level which of course requires serious time commitments outside working hours.
