Pros

The food is good and fresh the music is cool and ambient had fun times with the crew members

Cons

Being threatened that if you dont perform to a higher standard that you will be let go is not how you treat your employees. Their "high standards" is a joke, the fact is they want people doing more work then they should, and quite frankly no body follows procedures. I worked and tried my hardest yet i was getting harped on for the smallest things when other people were doing much worse. You learn to fear your general manager because our manager came in and nit picked everything and it made you feel like you couldnt do anything right. It started off good but as time went on it went downhill. Thst is why the turnover rate is so high, is because they want only "top performers" which most people arent. Chipotle really needs to work on treating their employees with more respect and giving them time to grow instead of threatening to cut them and making comments about it.

Pros

Lots of flexibility and good company benefits. Cool office space and good people. The company wants you to learn more and give you the opportunity to do so.

Cons

In the corporate space, very limited career growth opportunities. Current manager micromanages but not terribly. Company performance stinks and leadership does not want to take accountability.
