Pros

Good place to grow, good food, easier than most places to move up the corporate ladder. Experience at chipotle helps instill good traits that promote a better lifestyle.

Cons

Pay isn't reflective of the work, dry and hot work environment (not too hard to get used to thought), lead-footed management (above the restaurant level)

Pros

The crew is an extremely tight group of people. We are usually so busy that we don't have time to complain during service hours, which actually helps us feel more positive, and after service hours or during downtime our conversation is never about the shift because it would just be the same conversation every night. We all watch each other's backs and work together the best we can. Our managers are very positive and straight forward with their input and expectations. We have fun. If you work hard you'll better yourself and get out faster.

Cons

More of a problem with the individual employees than the company as a whole, lots of employees leave and the hiring process is long enough that it creates very long weeks for other employees (for example, three employees left my establishment, two are moving and one was overwhelmed by school) and in that I wind up working 70 hours in a pay period while still in school.

Pros

Flexible schedule, a decent pay with benefits, and fun to work with crew.

Cons

When people called off the work and you have to do extra work or come in to work on day off. It isn't good place to work if there isn't good crew without work ethic. So if you have right attitude and work ethic and everyone's job position will be easier.
