No the best place to work

Pros

I heard there were a good benefits and flexible schedule with a decent pay

Cons

To grow inside you need to be gay if not you can't grow, most of the management team in GA offer you great opportunities, but first you need to have a date with them, the sexual thing is first.

Burrito rolling isn't as smooth as you think

Pros

Lots of management opportunities - you can get promoted pretty easily, a culture of empowerment and ownership of the restaurant, feeling like you are making a difference, free employee meal, some health benefit from starting date.

Cons

Very stressful, corporate management tends to forget what it's like to work in the store- making decisions that make no sense when implemented, everything is all about the Restaurateur all the time- but is it really sustainable once you get there?, because of the high promotion rate a lot of people get promoted before they are ready which negatively affects the crew, you need to be a very fast paced person or you won't make it.

Pros

-TIPS (working part time, I got maybe about $25~30 per month, which isnt alot but its a freebee and it stacks up when you think about it long term. Plus how many fastfood jobs gets tips?) -The picky interview process means great crew! You have to be nice, and enthusiastic to be hired which means great coworkers which makes the job that much more better and fun. - Above avg wage, $11 here.

Cons

- Way too much work, exhausting. - Very fast paced, you will not do well if you're slow or even average. -The racial demographics seems to be a bit biased towards a few specific races? - If you become a GM you will be bombarded with hours, I mean 50+ hours per wk, be warned.
