Best QSR company to work for.

Pros

Corporate culture of empowerment, a sense that you are not always contributing to the downfall of modern civilization. Good food, decent benefits package (that was far better before the IPO).

Cons

Long hours for managers, lots of stress. Publicly traded means profit comes before common sense sometimes. (i.e., the labor matrix penalizes busy restaurants, making it so that labor costs are often as low as 11-12%, which is way too low.)

Pros

- Generally competent management (unlike some food service jobs) - Free Food - Typically flexible with scheduling - Has actually served as a decent thing to have on my resume, even in professional settings - people all know and like chipotle - Good support for those interested in being trained into manager/supervisor positions

Cons

- Pay is average at best - Restauranteur program and expectations makes GMs and supervisors overly focussed on improving the standards of the store, rather than the skill and satisfaction of their employees
