      The ZK deal ruined CAVA and the C level lost touch with the team

      Pros

      -Free Food -The culture was great the first 12 months, that is a huge reason why I joined. -The people, the previous CFO was a great leader -Company Events -The team I worked with before everyone started to leave because of the ZK deal. -Benefits were good, unlimited PTO, WFH when needed, casual attire in the office

      Cons

      -CAVA bought ZK, it ruined the culture and didn't bring us together as ONE team it actually divided us more and blew up everything -They were not upfront and honest about the changes that were going to happen in the future and no incentive to stay to commit to CAVA -No growth in my career if I stayed at CAVA, they don't believe in there people, and they don't trust them either. -The new CFO, runied the entire department and that is why everyone there is a contract employee because all the full-time employees left and they outsourced our jobs. -The culture became a terrible place to work because all they were focused on was ZK -ZK deal was the worst decision ever, in my opinion, that was huge reason why I left. They couldn't figure out how to integrate the finance systems, it was taking forever. -

      Pros

      The employer strongly encourages each employee to be creative. Each person has the opportunity to grow their position to what they want it to be. Management is completely hands on and always available to take on anything from the smallest task to the big stuff! They have their support staff and corporate employees work a week in a restaurant to learn the company from the ground up. Everyone has a strong passion for the company. ALSO FREE FOOD... who doesn't want free cava? Oh yeah, and salaried employees get unlimited PTO.. Pretty amazing. Modern company with amazing values and most importantly an amazing product.

      Cons

      No downsides really. No parking really, but thats DCs fault. The only downside is there is not a Cava location close enough to walk to from the corporate office.
