Pros

I enjoyed working with the emoloyees and getting to know them. I also enjoyed getting to know the customers on a personal level. It has a great beneifits package.

Cons

I think they need to recoginze the employees and the managers that do a great job with some kind of an award. They also need to do what they say they are going to do. The managers that go above the call of duty need to be promote it should not be based on if they are liked by the general manager it should be based on there job performance. I know I can run a great shift and the employess always worked well for me and I always got everything done for the next shift but, when I took over a shift it was always one excuse after another why they coud not get anything done yet that person gets promote over me. That is not right.

Pros

Experience varies heavily depending on the owner/operator you work for. Free and discounted food. 2 weeks PTO. Vision, Dental and Health insurance. Offers rapid development opportunities.

Cons

Work-life balance is nonexistent. In fact, the director of operations has stated numerous times, “Work life balance is a myth”. The company states you are required to work 45 hrs/week minimum; Realistically, GM’s can expect to work 55-60 hours in store with constant calls and messages when home. The company does not count any work done outside of the restaurant toward your 45hr requirement. There is no training for this position as you are expected to figure it out on the job. They offer $2000 per month performance bonus but are always finding new ways to disqualify you and move the goalposts when you actually earn it.
