Pros

Good benefits, great hours, weekends off, the client and the customers were the best, the fact you can have some leeway with how you cook.

Cons

Management are completely incompetent. You basically sell your soul to people who ultimately nix you because you're too good. The pay isn't worth your time for all the extra you do. Supervisor is a religious zealot.

Pros

Paid Holidays, off almost 2 weeks during Christmas. Good Benefits. Most of the customer's are very appreciative of all your hard work and effort. They are very friendly.

Cons

Management is terrible. They're never on the same page. They kept heaping more work on the heavy work load you already have. Rare breaks, even thou there mandatory. Manager's get angry if you tell them you didn't get your break's because they have to pay you for them. New Management is very dishonest. Although they are suppose to create stress and hostile free environments, 8 times of 10, they are the cause of them. Upper management doesn't care. They will throw you away like this mornings trash after years of faithful service. No growth opportunities for employee's who start in an upper position other than Cashier. Lastly: TOO MUCH DRAMA.

Pros

Monday through Friday schedule, no evenings, paid holidays. Salary can be decent if you have put yourself in a position to negotiate with your DM or RM. If your operation is running smoothly, and your client is happy, you will probably never see your DM or RM.

Cons

The amount of paperwork is astounding. I could actually spend all day at my desk doing safety stuff, corporate CYA paperwork, CHAT training, surveys, etc. It NEVER ends. Then, once you think you have caught up, they add something else for you to do on a weekly or monthly basis. It is very much a "thrown into the fire" type of learning experience. Managers are essentially neutered when it comes to firing or sever disciplining of their direct reports as HR is always trying to play CYA. God forbid if you need to fire someone. There are like four levels of approval needed and an unrealistic paper trail of documentation. In the five years I have been here, I have noticed a drastic shift in attitude regarding food. Used to be that you had the autonomy to purchase different items from different vendors, thus allowing you the ability to source preferred items. Not any longer. They are now more concerned with their kickbacks from national vendors, meaning you end up in trouble if you do not buy your cheese from the right vendor. You are also forced to purchase a large order of "opportunity buy" substandard product every month. They are also heavily promoting "recharge" items. This means you will automatically receive items from a vendor whether you want them or not. Overall, a very difficult place to
