Compass Group USA

Is this your company?

A company big enough to be lost in if you're too small. - Cashier Compass Group USA Employee Review

Pros

A big company offers a huge umbrella to protect you. Plenty of security in terms of hours and insurance.

Cons

Make no mistakes, you're a number. HR's answer to most of your problems/grievances will be "associates shouldn't talk/ask about that kind of stuff." Advancement seemed to be relegated to management and food service. Five years at minimum wage for a chance to manage for a dollar more is absurd. Pay is low and unit managers seem to be encouraged to find ways to skim even more off your check.

Pros

Autonomy, trust, not being tied to a desk, and encouragement to bring your authentic self to work are among the highlights. However, as a contractor, this may vary from account/site to site. Also, annual raises awarded, despite what the client schedule for increases looks like. A huge network of subsidiary companies

Cons

My current client site is one of the higher paying in my region, which is a good problem to have for some time, but leaves little room to grow financially. Also, growth rarely if ever happens staying in the same account, so financial/role growth will rest mostly upon pursuing other opportunities at different Compass accounts.
