Pros

Great place to work with kids and mentor teens.

Cons

Company was bought by Apollo Global Management and since then has fallen away from what Chuck E was built on. Pay/ bonus is now a the bottom of the industry with no changes in site. Now is focused on adults rather than the kids. They have completely disregarded the experienced and loyal GMs, people that have successfully ran their stores for 10+ yrs. are treat worse then the new GMs. Making it unconditionally clear that we are not wanted and will be squeezed to breaking point and finally move on!

Pros

-They give you free food up to $30 -The benefits are fairly decent -High mileage pay for traveling -Lots of diversity and inclusion

Cons

-The worst upper management you’ll ever work for. Constant micromanaging. Sets unrealistic expectations with zero support or assistance. All while they take long vacations. -Preach “company standard” but flip flop on every decision with no notice -Constant labor crunch. Expects miracles with ~3 people on shift. -Will have to work out of your area with no added pay -Training is hit or miss. If you don’t speak up immediately about something you weren’t taught, they will blame you. -If salaried, will probably have to work over 40hrs will no additional incentive -Customers above all else. They are rewarded for complaints and you will definitely be punished. -Heavy AI usage. Even in biased customer surveys that will count against you.
