Pros

Working at In-N-Out is awesome because you constantly receive raises whenever you level up in the company.. I began making $13.25 an hour, and in the course of 3 years, I left making $16.75... So the compensate you very well. And you get paid for holidays and a free burger whenever you work.

Cons

I think the cons outweigh the pros... They're very strict about makeup, YOUR UNIFORM STAYING CLEAN (which can be very hard since you're working with food), alot of the times they run of uniform shirts, whivh typically I'm a small in women, but you'd catch me wearing a men's XXL... and you only take 10 min breaks which are TIMED by a massive tv in the kitchen so the can keep tabs on you, which sucks because you work 6 hrs at most and that's the only break you'd get... and there you are rushing to eat. Oh and its very stressful being forced to smile when the managers would yell out "SMILE CHECK"! Mentally unhealthy... and they live by "The customer is ALWAYS right" saying, so just know they'll never side with you no matter how ridiculous the situation can be. That's hurtful when a manager takes a complete stranger's side over yours, their own employee who they know.

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,
