Stay Away From Chipotle

Pros

The only pro is that you get free food during your breaks and discount on food on your days off.

Cons

Management tends to be completely incompetent, scheduling was changed without proper notification, pay was minimal, time-management expectations were often unrealistic for back of the house staff. Concerns of the staff went unheard nearly one hundred percent of the time. There is very little in the way of career development and very few opportunities to actually move up the ladder with this company.

Pros

The people you work with are great. You get payed lunch and a free meal. They train you to be a manager in as little as 3 months.

Cons

You have to memorize a lot of things in order to actually succed in the company. They are very strict about a lot of things. The managaer changes the schedule 2 - 3 times a week. they puch to be perfect. You can only get one thing for half the price when you are not working there. The raises suck.

Pros

The food is good and the quality ingredients are something a person can be proud of serving. The store I worked at had a very flexible schedule (I was a university student at the time). The other employees were generally very good, but some were not of the highest caliber. They comp lunch while working and 50% on days off. This plus the quality food made me eat there much more often.

Cons

The pay is low or at minimum wage, but set by the hiring manager so there may be some room for negotiation. This is still counter service so coworkers are sometimes not the best / brightest people to work with. However, that being said, most guests who come into Chipotle are happy to be there which makes for a more pleasant work atmosphere.
