Pros

Brassica has an excellent working environment. The managers are friendly and understanding and they have a knack for hiring the friendliest, funniest people in Columbus. They also care genuinely about how each of their team members are doing at work and in their personal lives and work hard to ensure that everyone is being challenged at work. The shifts are busy but fun and they fly by. It feels great to work at a restaurant that the city (and state) loves!

Cons

You will be asked to work hard on each and every shift, but that makes each day feel rewarding. Some of the attire and grooming standards can feel strict, but most have solid reasoning behind them.

Pros

- Intensive, hands on 20 week training program - Talented, supportive and upbeat colleagues - Clear cut systems and expectations - Real opportunities to grow within the company - Great compensation - Quarterly bonuses based on stores success - High energy, high success - Open door policies across the company - High standards for employees resulting in hardworking, detail oriented and fun loving hourly team members Though I have only been here for a short time, I have really come to love my job. It’s incredibly demanding work, but I believe that is what makes it rewarding. Everyday poses a new challenge and a new skill to master, so it is far from boring. As a life time athlete, this job has really found a way to emulate what I loved about competing with a team for a common goal — everyday feels like game day. We grind together and we win together and if we lose, we come together. Each day I leave my shift and feel accomplished because I have done something that not everyone is capable of doing and I do it at the sides of people who want to see me succeed as much as they themselves want to succeed.

Cons

- Minimal time off (3, 7 day vacations a year) - No 401K or retirement plan - If other stores are struggling the burden will be passed to the stronger stores/partners. - Though commonplace for the industry, the stores remain open for most holidays (omitting the major holidays — we usually have the day of off) making it very challenging to make enough time to enjoy family or friends if you are from out of town.

Pros

An excellent environment to learn and grow with active and engaged leadership and upper management, and plenty of opportunity to move up if you work for it. Although a fast-food concept, it is verging on fine dining with the standards, quality food, and exceptional pay and good benefits. An excellent concept that is poised to rapidly expand over the next couple years.

Cons

Fast paced and relatively demanding environment may not be for everyone. Limiting but professional uniform standards (limits on piercings, tattoos, hair color).
