Pros

Chipotle tastes amazing and you get a free meal when you work.

Cons

The wages are way too low for the amount of manual labor required. They have a psuedostructure in place to offer those a way to progress in the company but it is a lot of work for a .50 to 2 dollar increase in pay. A lot of the workers there are not fluent in English so if you do not speak Spanish you will not be able to communicate with your coworkers effectively or feel like you fit in. I also had something stolen from me from by a fellow coworker while I worked there and the management was hesitant to lay the blame on the staff even though only employees could access the storage room where my item was located. You also have to use your pitiful wages to purchase "shoes for crews" and a company uniform. I was employed in 2010 so things may have changed.
