Pros

The potential for making a large bonus is one of the positive things about working at BKC( though with the state of its business it is unlikely that it will be paid). Since 3G Capital purchased the company, it is a shadow of its former self. Once the employer of choice in South Florida, Burger King is now at the bottom of the list of good places to work. You will meet a few nice people.

Cons

The work environment resembles a sweat shop. The sullen faces of employees (the few that are left that remember the pre-3G days) greet you as you walk through the doors. The new and younger replacement employees who form the management trainee soon realize that they were sold a bag of lies once they walk through the doors. For a multi-billion dollar company, incompetence pervades despite the supposed pedigree of the new management and new hires. The business strategy is throw everything at the wall and see what sticks. Due to the frequent layoffs, employees openly joke about getting fired and not leaving until they get a package. If you are not male, Brazilian, young or have some connection to 3G, then you won't go far at Burger King. Incompetent people are in charge. You will be stuck with low salary, terrible benefits and a depressing work environment.

Pros

Strong brand presence, I have a very good director and VP, pretty decent gym for $25 per month, and the cafeteria is a huge perk.

Cons

Dishonest executive team, terrible work environment because of the fear of losing your job everyday, ownership expects you do do the job of 4 people and receive the same compensation, all the cubes were ripped out and now we sit at what feels like picnic tables in a wide open floor.

Pros

I enjoy working with most of my co workers, I’ve had a good time working there and I really enjoy some of my interactions with the regular customers . The job is very easy and laid back on most days

Cons

No set schedule , they are unappreciative of the hard work some workers put in. They don’t give raises and when they do they are insignificant. They call you in all the time on days off and get mad when you won’t work, yet they will hire a bunch of people and cut your hours . Hard to get some of the people to even do there job And you will do work of 2 people.
