Pros

Free food from your customers

Cons

Cut pay about a year ago, commission from 14% to 7% on many accounts. Short on product to give the customer often. Unload and load your truck everyday.

Pros

large company with college degree you have a chance for advancement in management. Great benefits insurance, 401k, bonuses.

Cons

Hourly employees get laid off a lot when classes are out. Work stations can be hot and not very worker friendly. Hourly employees tend to be treated substandard because of the tax breaks by hiring the less fortunate.

Pros

This employer is part of a larger company with many other accounts. This fosters the potential for promotion. There are small, close-knit staffs within the individual kitchens. Many staff members have years of experience and knowledge to learn from. Upper management is polite and seems to have the best interests in mind. Aramark gives annual cost of living raises.

Cons

I had hoped for more opportunities to advance, but this may also be due to the economy. Hours have been cut, but the workload has increased. I had expected more formal training to trickle down from the corporate level. For example new HACCP worksheets were introduced. The only information distributed with them was a sheet of written instructions. A simple example of a filled out form would have helped.
