Pros

It's really not many good reason to work for this company because there's no paid holiday,birthday or etc. At the end of the year they give you something call wellness pay and that's everything for the whole year that you worked for. I just finish with school and by me having this training hopfully I could futher my career somewhere else.

Cons

By working with this company for a long period of time, it just does't seem to be a very good working environment. Because when you have a problem their's no one to listen to you, no one to back you up. I enjoy working around food and different people but compass has'nt showed me anything after 10 years of service.

Pros

Everything depends on which sector you are working for. Restaurant Associates, Wolfgang Puck catering, Flik, Levy, Morrison, Eurest, etc. With RA, Puck and Flik you can be at the top of your field and working some of the most glamorous events in the nation. There is tremendous opportunity for advancement, more if you are willing to relocate. Good money in the "nice" sectors. Hard work but worth it.

Cons

File work/life balance in the mythology section. Really sub par managers tend to thrive in the core 4 sectors. Way too much redundant administrative HR type work to do. Needs desperately to be pared down. Training is company specific and does not allow for transferable growth. Benefits to managers are currently being canabalized to save $. Nepotism is alive and well and living in Compass group, shockingly open practice of it.
