Pros

Flexible scheduling, paid break, and free employee meal.

Cons

Trained a certain way by one manager and quickly found out it wasn't another's way of doing things which created a lot of confusion and apparently rendered me a "low performer" where I was verbally harassed and eventually in my opinion wrongfully terminated. It seemed as if there were more managers than employees, all of which were severally under qualified and on personal power trips. Employees including myself were regularly forced to work while sick/contagious even with the presence of a doctors note, which I thought was very unsanitary. The politics were terrible, and certain people generally got to fool around in the back while the person on the line was generally forced to do everything. I was regularly told to smile immediately after my job was threatened and was verbally harassed for being slow and confused from lack of formal training. This is Chipotles idea of helping their employees.

Pros

Learning and growing to cultivate your own career path into a competent General Manager. The hours are longer than regular but the position is labeled as salary hourly with a minimum of 50 hours per week which guarantees 10 hours if overtime per week.

Cons

The long hours can be tiring and the expectations are less than or equivalent to that of a General Manager and depending who your boss is dependent on what you learn and how you can grow.
