Pros

Company culture - Commitment To Their People Fun atmosphere within restaurant. Growth Opportunity Good Benefits - especially within industry Culture of excellence.

Cons

Becoming more corporatized - whittling away at the culture that got it to this point. Extremely repetitive work. Corporate Assessments make job security volatile. Base level employees are very unreliable. Lack of systemic vision/foresight by leadership. Culture of excellence - has gotten to a point where labor force cannot keep up with standards. Business volumes are plateauing as quality of life decreases. Work/Life Balance.

Pros

All major holidays off, not a terrible starting wage at two bucks above state minimum, decent product for the low quality, 50% off food (but only on working days), flexible scheduling

Cons

Hard work, long hours for only two bucks above minimum wage High pressure, high volume kitchen You constantly have to carry really heavy objects through a greasy kitchen floor quickly Late nights (if you close, expect to be out by 1am-2am) Physically demanding An obscene amount of artificial busywork Overly obsessed with cleanliness as compared to most other restaurants (takes 2-2.5 hours to close as opposed to the typical one hour for restaurants) Culty reverence for founder Ridiculously exacting and corporate work standards Operations are not environmentally sustainable in the existential crisis age of climate change (using styrofoam packaging and crew cups--which cannot be recycled, habitat-destroying-and-major-deforestating Palm oil in Cane's "butter", plastic bags instead of paper packaging) Different managers tell you different things You are treated like a robot and expected to be 100% productive on your shifts down to the very last second

Pros

The crew is amazing and fun to work with. The customers are wonderful to serve and interact with. The work environment is usually fun and laid back while still working hard.

Cons

There has been a lot of managerial change and inconsistency for over a year now. Getting compensated for your contribution to the company seems to be more a popularity contest than one that values demonstrated work ethic or dependability.
