Pros

The Pro's are very dependent on the account you are working at, but overall they are fine and you can get help when needed. Generally most accounts are Monday-Friday, avoid the airport lounges if you can (24/7). Good benefits and they try to give you a healthy work life balance for what the F&B industry is.

Cons

Everything is separated out by region so being able to move and get promoted is very location based, i.e. the region I am located is part of Washington DC, it seems that in order to advance up one would need to be a part of the Northern VA group and not located outside of that. Has the company grows more and more audits have been created that can get in the way of the real work that needs to be done. No two accounts can look the same based off of equipment/clientele but these audits leave little wiggle room for what the clientele has actually stated they want and or need. Yet we are judged off these cookie cutter audits.

Pros

Weekends and holidays off. Exceptional pay for the area I’m in. Coworkers are great.

Cons

If you’ve ever worked in a restaurant you understand having a sense of urgency, the ability to communicate clearly with your managers and coworkers, and what it’s like to be motivated to serve guests your all. This is not that. I was 21 when I was brought in to lead all pastry production with no training or onboarding. Throughout my time here it’s been nothing but a struggle trying to communicate with my chefs to get answers to questions or concerns about upcoming menus, ordering, broken equipment, and the culture within the kitchen. At one point I was promised a promotion, or to at least be put through FLIK’s manager in training program, but after finding that my chefs didn’t really care to follow through, it’s made working here miserable. It’s like having an office job, but you stand and move around all day instead of sitting at a desk. If you are new to the pastry world, don’t join FLIK. The money is good, but the experience you can get somewhere else will be much more valuable.
