Pros

I have been with RA for over 10 years. RA is the premier food service sector for Compass Group. Having previously worked for other large contract food service companies, I think Compass and RA are the best. Compass allows RA to maintain it's personality that has made it successful, while having the backing of a global company. We service the best clients across business & industry, as well as major cultural centers. As a company with consistent growth and a policy to promote from within, opportunities abound.

Cons

RA is a force in NYC, Boston, D.C., and is continuously expanding. The only con I can think of is that they haven't expanded to my hometown yet, but when they do; Look out Pittsburgh!

Pros

Love the management team, chefs, and coworkers, cant speak highly enough of them. I have a great work life balance and feel like the kitchen is stocked well.

Cons

The space i work in was badly designed and installed. About a third of the equipment doesn't work, stopped working, never worked which is unacceptable for a new place. Also the very limited fridge and freezer space in comparison to the amount of food produced per day is laughable, if it wasn't so frustrating to deal with on a daily basis.
