Pros

There may not be an easier job on the planet. Working among so many Hispanic people it's very easy to pick up Spanish. As a result you can learn about Hispanic culture too which is pretty neat. The food is free while you work, and half off when you're not working, and always tastes amazing. The higher ups also seem to genuinely care about the lower level employees, and often come to work in stores so they don't lose perspective.

Cons

The higher ups caring about lower level employees seems to be limited to just the district staff. Senior management changes rules regularly without giving anything any time to see if changes actually work. Specifically, the location I worked at, the GM never paid attention to my schedule requests and I was eventually let go because of a "no call no show" on a day she told me I could have off. I don't know if this is limited to my specific location or not.

Pros

The best thing that I loved about working at Chipotle was all the free food that I could possibly get when I was working there.

Cons

I did not like how the Chipotle I was working at was run by management. Nothing was ever consistent and I hated it. They would always changed my schedule without my knowing. I was fired for not showing up one day because I had no idea that they changed my schedule.
