Pros

No Pros that were real. Lots of talk and verbal representations with lots of good looking printed materials boiler plated with nice sounding verbiage but the rubber rarely if ever hits the road. Just a lot of window dressing.

Cons

Very abusive and lacked basic respect for workers. High Stress with Unrealistic expectation and requirements. Low pay. (Remember to divide the annual salary back across 15 months not 12 due to the 50 or more hours required weekly and bonuses are not guaranteed). No real hand washing and no gloves really bothered me given the internal policy is so aggressive to insure this function for public health is accomplished but they easily know proper hand washing just isn't occurring because of the policy regarding time requirements aka Labor vs money trumps health. Pure ignorance and/or willful disregard for basic health protections and a great shock to me since I had been a customer since they virtually opened their doors and I never knew how bad it was until I got behind the Orange Curtain... I have not been a customer moving forward as it just grosses me out to be honest.

Pros

Whataburger has some great benefits and a good backbone. Good support systems for employees in need and great standards. Room to grow and advance in the company if wanted.

Cons

Some stores need better management. There is at least one manager in each store that is overworked and taken advantage of while the rest of them slack off and do anything they want. Don't get me wrong it might just be where I'm from but I see it alot. Working 60-75 hours while the rest of management work 45-50 hours is just not right.
