Pros

Room for advancement, free food, I was able to leave the Capitol Heights store for another store that saw my abilities.

Cons

Work 10-12 hours a day, most of the time with no break. Never received my raise as promised after first 3 weeks in training nor title of Kitchen manager. I wash dishes everyday instead of managing the kitchen.

Pros

It is a great place to work for the young and old! It provides high energy in a relaxed, chill environment, where everyone is there to just eat awesome burritos and socialize! You will meet a large number of great people working and eating there.

Cons

Downside is the lack of growth pass the capabilities of the location you work at. Promotions depend on time and money as well as if there is spot available for you.

Pros

The concept is good and the food is good. They use organic and locally grown ingredients. There is opportunity for advancement, if you make it that far.

Cons

Long hours, sometimes with no break They expect way too much from a new hire The work load is enough for 2-3 people and if you can't keep up they give you a hard time about it. My training was only 4 days, 4 hours a day. After that I was on my own and expected to have all of the recipes and cuts memorized. I've been here 3 weeks and was told by a manager that I have lasted longer than most in my position, they usually last 1 week.(that should be a red flag for them) They expect 12 hours of work in 8 hours.
