      Pros

      RA is a great company to work for because they are invested in training their leaders thoroughly on all program expectations and needed skills for the job. I feel RA is also committed to it's employee's and invests their futures with many opportunities for growth. My leaders at RA have made a personal impact on me in my career progression as I have felt cared for, valued, and wanted. Their benefits and perks are also a great reason to work for them. I highly recommend the company to any aspiring culinarian or manager.

      Cons

      Restaurant Associates has some outdated computer programs/resources.
