Business Outlook

Pros

Worked here part time while attending school. It was overall ok. Pretty much what one would expect in a standard fast food environment. Unmotivated employees, management that just wants the day to be over etc. For a part time position it wasn't bad. -Decent amount of hours -They will hire anyone (good if you're lazy) -Pretty easy work -Union shop (if you're part of the union)

Cons

-No raises after 4 years employment -They will hire anyone (sucks if you have any work ethic whatsoever) -Union shop (if you work part time you can't join)

Overall good company

Business Outlook

Pros

Good company overall initially with excellent benefits, but they've changed over the years to moderately above average. Ongoing training provided. Opportunities to advance with company especially if able to relocate. Majority of colleagues & supervisors excellent. Fortunate to spend majority of career with outstanding General Manager who was willing to support staff & would use entire raise percentage on staff taking no increase for self.

Cons

Contract management so if contract lost job is lost. Company top heavy & needs to consolidate. Issues with District Manager violating federal law, violating company hiring policy, places professional staff in impossible situations, not trust worthy as an individual, failed to investigate situations. Unqualified individuals hired at higher rate than superior rated employee. Area Support Manager doesn't keep up with new information & tries to force individual opinion on account rather than use established standards. Some General Manager incompetent & shouldn't have been hired.
