Pros

Aramark is a large company, so you have many options to grow and move around if you don't immediately love the job for which you're hired. They provide good benefits and an excellent work environment. I never had a manager I didn't like in my 21 years.

Cons

Their corporate offices are in Philadelphia. I worked in one of the regional offices and felt that they were throwing out talented people for less-gifted individuals who were located at Corporate.

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.
