Pros

The perks of getting free food during your shift was amazing. This job is best suitable for a college student who does not want to cook, but loves Chipotle! I quit, but still eat there now and then.

Cons

This can be a pro or a con but they promote workers to managers only within the company. I felt that some managers were not suitable for their position. Lucky to have a good GM, but everyone else, not so good. I'm a pretty athletic, focused individual, so they had me run the tortilla press. I made it pretty funny to force everyone else to basically go blazing fast, but I had to show who's boss lol! In the end, everything is quite repetitive, but that's what you have to take in this fast and fresh food industry.

Pros

Great people, lots of opportunity for growth and promotion, the company promotes from within only, and good pay.

Cons

If you're stuck in a store with a bad GM, you don't have great opportunity for growth or promotion and there is extreme favoritism.
