Pros

Inspire is getting a lot of press right now, trying to do something different. May be opportunity across brands once you get hired.

Cons

Arrogant leadership. Communication is terrible, leadership lies about a lot. They have an M&A strategy but completely failed at their first acquisition, and aren’t willing to listen to feedback. Their “integration survey” was completely written off when it was more negative than anticipated. Many of the leaders don’t understand the restaurant space, and its starting to show. On top of that, the culture is very bro-centric, and diversity is not important. The CEO has political aspirations, and its clear that he trying to set himself up for success in that space, independent of what makes sense for the company and its brands long-term.

Pros

Culture - there was already a great culture before I joined and now they are putting even more effort to keeping the great, fun and welcoming culture and making sure it is spread through the entire company. People - Inspire puts a lot of resources towards hiring not only talented people but people that are energetic, enthusiastic and overall great people. I am surrounded by fun hard-working in every department. Balance - there is a huge emphasis on employees being happy and well balanced. There is increasingly more flexibility on hours and team leaders are constantly checking in to make sure each team member has the right amount work. Opportunities - Inspire Brands is full of opportunities both personally and professionally. Each team is playing a large part in the success of the company while trying to make large changes and improve each brand.

Cons

Organization - the company is currently in a rapid growth state so there are a lot of tasks to accomplish and things are constantly changing. This may be a challenge for some but the quick rate of change is a great opportunity to take on and be a part of the changes in the company.
