Pros

Flexible work schedules, decent pay for fast food industry, room for growth, good training.

Cons

The main reason I left the company was due to the lack of courtesy from management. Basically if you are schduled to work until 9pm...that doesn't mean you will get off at 9pm. You are not allowed to just clock out when your scheduled shift ends like every other job I've ever had. You are held prisioner until the manager decides you can go home. I always was so frustrated by this. I felt that they needed to forecast how busy the resturant would be better. If the manager didn't schedule correctly...not my problem, do your job better. The thing that upset me the most was they woudn't even ask you if you could stay longer, they wouldn't give me a choice. So don't make plans for when your scheduled shift ends because you will not get off on time. Just assume you will be working the full 6 hours. So you'll get 1 10 break per 6 hour shift...they make sure to get you out before the 7th hour so that you are not entiled to a lunch.

Pros

In-N-Out Burger is largely a company that is exactly what they appear to be. Truly committed to superior product quality and incredible customer service. While there are always some low performers/bad eggs in any company, it is few and far between at INO. It is a company where performance is acknowledged and rewarded, and the company is phenomenally supportive and spends a lot of money to reward performance (trips around the world for hitting goals, etc. INO pays incredible wages and gives you ample opportunity to make more money and achieve trips and such by hitting your goals. Because they pay so well across the board, if you are a store manager you tend to have the pick of the best applicants, as you're not paying anything close to minimum wage.

Cons

Schedule can be a bit demanding at times if you're in Management, but you are handsomely compensated. If you get under a Manager or Divisional Manager who isn't fair or seems unreasonable, that can be a challenge to navigate. Fortunately, these people are few and far between, and HR is very fair and will go to bat for you if needed,
