Pros

I loved coming to work every day because I knew that the folks coming to my classes really wanted to learn. Also, the kitchen set up allowed me to engage with the students in such an authentic manner, I never felt like I was out of reach, we were truly able to get into the food and what made flavors mesh. I always felt like each class was one big family meal. I miss that.

Cons

I wasn’t able to stray from the corporate recipes at all, even if I felt it would benefit the class to change something. I am always more interested in being authentic than “sales-y” and my classes sold more products because of that.

Pros

Employee discount is good and inclusive for everyone.

Cons

High turn-over in floor/sales staff resulted in inconsistent support and more pressure on reliable employees to cover. Pay was inadequate. Started off as sales then encouraged to floor lead for a $.025 raise. Very little opportunity for career advancement. Only general managers and head chefs are salaried.
