Pros

They give a Generous discount

Cons

Micromanaging all day everyday The district manager is a bully and only cares about sales for her district and doesn’t care how you get there . She loves to break policy and procedures. Never backs the staff on companies policies and allows the consumers to control what the stores do or don’t do . She alienates you and is extremely rude if you share anything that is negative taking place that may require her to actually work and do her job . She talks poorly about all staff members by name to internal and external people . She runs her district like a fast food drive thru window.( she should return to that industry ) She doesn’t care about the employees only being number one in the company . The high turnover speakers volumes to the company and to upper management . Don’t bother telling anyone higher up because they too do not care and are not equipped to handle anything and just kick the can down the road . HR should remain neutral in confidential discussions but defends the poor behavior of upper management. This company has a terrible reputation . Pay is horrible and they do not give raises when they say they will . The major signs of a toxic work environment and this places check every single box ! Extreme micromanagement. High employee turnover. Employees fear giving feedback. Lack of respect or recognition. Too many outdated or arbitrary rules. Excessive emphasis on performance metrics. Poor work/life balance. Lack of employee growth/progress. Cliques, gossip and rumors run rampant. No boundaries from leadership. Frustration that YOU as an individual cannot change anything. They can’t even manage their own metrics or KPIs correctly . No accountability for upper management but they lay the hammer down to the stores and staff . Upper management gives instructions and then takes no accountability for those instructions given and tell you to figure it out for yourself . Think twice before coming here because you and your staff will make more money working at Chick-fil-A , at least they take good care of their employees and have an outstanding reputation .

micromanaging from corporate, disorganized management, moderate turnover, things get stressful but also fun during busy seasons
