Pros

Pay is good. Weekends off. 401k and health insurance is good. The paychecks are still clearing the bank. Creating relationships with customers.

Cons

Company is in a very fast downward spiral. There is absolutely no quality control from production. Management wonders why we are losing so much business. It's quite simple, we are charging OUTRAGEOUS prices and delivering a horrible product. Who would want to stay with us? Management focuses on everything BUT customer service. It's all about numbers, except retention numbers. I have witnessed customers pricing quadruple in price in just 6 months of signing a 5 year contract with us. Customers don't trust us anymore. How can they plan and forecast for their business when they have no clue what the next Aramark bill is going to be?

Pros

Only pros that I can say that I have noticed while working here is that they are somewhat flexible with your schedule.

Cons

Don't get me started. Upper management is horrendous, there is no opprotunity for advancement within the company, management often comes into store angry and yells at the workers in front of employees.

Pros

Depending on the location you are at there are a lot of really great employees there.

Cons

ZERO COMMUNICATION. There is so much mismanagement going on it is hard to believe they make any money. Top managers who do not have a clue how the business runs, other management who treat employees like they are beneath them, unrealistic expectations and no tools/training given to achieve them. Morale is terrible, no one wants to be there. And continuous price increases for low quality products. Very poor customer service.
