Pros
decent pay when you are running a shift, bad pay when you are not. free food? free soda.
Cons
impossible to go anywhere in this company i have more job-codes and separate pay rates than i do pairs of shoes. it is annoying having to clock in as a "manager" only after the general manager leaves the store EVEN though all shift long you are required and expected to perform manager tasks at minimum salary. It is very difficult to maintain a separate part-time job while working at Smash burger because the shifts are so sporadic and inconsistent every week is different than the last, not to mention the fact that you are "coaxed" into working during your 30 minute break of your 14 hour shift. Company never pays overtime and cuts labor in an unnecessary fashion leaving people at night time under staffed and over worked. no employee benefits or healthcare no overtime or time and a half. the company instills a strong presence of self worthlessness meaning you have no structural value to the company and could quit the next day they wouldn't care. SmashBurger makes you feel like you are working ONLY so that the people above you can get their bonus' while you live paycheck to paycheck at hardly 35 hours a week and a schedule with no constancy.
