Pros

Diversity and opportunity for young people to receive some management experience. I worked here during high school and my freshman year of college as a kitchen manager. I eventually moved on because my first promotion took far too long to complete and my promotion to service manager was going to be delayed when they realized I wasn't 21 - even though I was far more qualified than many other people I worked with above me.

Cons

Depending on the store you work at you could possibly wind up under some poor management. I had an overall good experience with managers that came up within my own store, but those that came from other stores for some reason had a tendency to under perform.

Pros

It's a fun place to work. You have the opportunity to make a career out of a simple job. And you get to eat great food for free. Chipotle has the best music.

Cons

They push you to do too many jobs in so little time. Most of my co-workers burn themselves on the tortilla press machine and most have scars for life. They want to break records everyday in transactions made at lunch time and they don't care how bad we the employees push our costumers to order their food. You don't get any good or benefits at all unless you are Management.
