Pros

Employee benefits were decent. Was nice to take home a big beef with hot peppers for next to nothing every shift. Management will work with you if you persist enough but really depends on who’s working.

Cons

Cutthroat staff and management that will throw you under the bus to save their hide. Lots of entitled old heads there who’ve been in fast food forever and grown bitter out of it. If you don’t go their way at portillos it’s the highway even if you’re the best at your position.
