Pros

I started off as the "tortilla" position. Which means that you'll greet and receive the customer's orders. Than job position is really easy. If you are shy that experience definitely help you out to overcome any position in the restaurant. You get "free food". You'll get a few cool t-shirts.

Cons

It can get very very busy. At Chipotle, you aren't only in one position. Sometimes you'll have to jump off to help on the grill, prep, salsa or washing dishes. This place demands high availability, energy and TEAMWORK. Depending on the store's management, they can cut your hours. There isn't much room to grow really, unless you pursue a career in the food industry. Kitchen managers and Service Managers' salaries aren't that different. Once you become a Service that it, your life is over.

Pros

Learning and growing to cultivate your own career path into a competent General Manager. The hours are longer than regular but the position is labeled as salary hourly with a minimum of 50 hours per week which guarantees 10 hours if overtime per week.

Cons

The long hours can be tiring and the expectations are less than or equivalent to that of a General Manager and depending who your boss is dependent on what you learn and how you can grow.
