Pros

Work and training opportunities for me were very good, mostly due to encouragement of select management personnel. However, the turnover of most levels of management during my career was astounding.

Cons

Company is changing toward a leaner, meaner, and supposedly more efficient machine (I'm guessing only for high level management reporting). The new Oracle software allows everybody who uses it to take approximately 2-3 times longer than the old software to do their job, and with the regular layoffs (every 6 months for last 4+ years) there is more work for the employees across the nation. Not sure how aware Eric Foss, CEO, is of work environment above as level of management reporting to him is probably unaware also. The corporation is combining into one Aramark corporation across all departments over time - HR, IT, A/P, A/R, etc.

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.
