Pros

-Culture of food -Wear jeans everyday to work -Onsite Daycare/Spa/Gym/Car Wash -Summer hours give employees the chance to leave at 1 pm on Fridays in the summer -Big Name Brand to work for

Cons

-Constant stream of upper managers from different industries are being recruited into Taco Bell .Taco Bell should aggressively develop their analysts and associates within to maintain the fun Taco Bell culture -Management is neurotic and never remembers their past mistakes -The culture of promoting has started to become more cut throat. To move up you need to not be afraid to bruise people on your way to management. -Only some departments get to be creative and have fun. Management should structure the organization to leverage EVERYONE's creative energy.

Pros

The bosses and the systems. Hands down. Been in restaurant management (full service and fine dining) over 20 years and I have learned more from Taco Bell ASL's and HR than I ever have. Didn't happen at day one. You have to be committed, open to feedback and coaching, willing to improve. If you have pride, integrity, and a good work ethic they will do whatever it takes to help you succeed. Great pay, a lot of "easy" bonus money out there if you deliver consistent results. Great work life balance if you know how to "work smart". Very big on HR integrity issues, and great job security if you give even 50%.

Cons

Great job security even if you give 50%. No active bench, so we hold on to the bottom 10% much longer than we should. Which shouldn't be a con, because as long as the majority achieves average results, there is little competition for top spots.
