Pros

Decent pay, and lots of upward mobility if you are a good worker and in the right place at the right time. In higher end you are off for holidays. I have learned a lot in my time with Aramark.

Cons

Focus is purely number based. The company has been around for a while, and it has so many separate reporting programs for everything you do. They say that they are in the process of streamlining the work, but we will see. They load so much paperwork on their front line managers that it is hard to focus on the business.

Pros

Travel opportunities. Former corporate management was extremely supportive and good to work with. Free food. Free drama.

Cons

Work life balance. Don’t be a mother to young children if you want to work here. Verbal communication vs. what you get in an email will be contradictory….the gaslighting was unbelievable. Digital metric systems put in place by new corporate management has taken all the creativity and actual management out of the job. Will be mad at you if you don’t make the numbers they want to see, but will provide zero guidance on how best to do so. Hours were extremely long in order to complete all job responsibilities. New upper management is inflexible to specific account needs. Each account is different. HR does not help you - they protect the company. If you need to terminate an employee - they make it impossible.
