Great company and food service standards, but falls short on staff implementation and training

Anonymous employee

Pros

The pay scale is decent, especially for food service. There is growth potential in middle management. Opportunities to understand and work in a sustainable food culture. Benefits are good, vacation time is good for managers. The CEO/CFO are committed to changing the food industry for the good.

Cons

Growth and development opportunities are dependent on which account you work for. The company does a poor job at training managers with no proper training program. Company seems to be growing quickly and there are major gaps in management and communication. There are no set standards or measurement for staff, resulting in unclear expectations.

Pros

Good co-workers help make or break any team. I was fortunate enough to have great teams during my time working for Bon Appetit.

Cons

Favoritism is alive and well on the part of management. If you're on their good side then you're likely to get the days off you need and the tasks you enjoy. If you're on their bad side, then good luck to you. I worked at the same location and dealt with three different managers. Rules only applied to those management did not like. I was both the favored and un-favored depending on who was a part of the management of the time. This place lacks some transparent rules, maybe a little seniority.
