Level 6

Associate Level V (Current Employee)
Phoenix, AZ (US)

I have been working at In-N-Out Burger part-time for more than 7 years

ProsGreat work environment, busy so it makes the time go by fast, friendly people, generally friendly customers, they put you on track to advance and do great with training.

ConsOn a lot of occasions you're made to stay past your scheduled clock out time, a lot of time with without warning. Its fast food so the motions are very repetitive and you're required to stand for the whole length of your shift

Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend – I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company

Good Place for Students

Associate (Former Employee)
Los Angeles, CA (US)

I worked at In-N-Out Burger part-time for more than 7 years

ProsMost store managers are willing to be flexible with your hours
There is great starting pay and great benefits.
Great opportunities for advancement.

ConsThe culture of each store is different, it really depends on the store manager
Sometimes, managers can give you a hard time if they don't like you, and HR may take a little while to act on issues.

Overall Goop company has its ups and downs.

Level IV (Former Employee)
Anaheim Hills, CA (US)

I worked at In-N-Out Burger part-time for more than 3 years

ProsLots of good team building experiences and the company tries really hard to ensure their employees feel like part of a team and enjoy working for them.

ConsFelt like there was a real disconnect between the hourly associates and division management and if an employee wanted to voice an opinion it was difficult to reach anyone other then your store manager.

Advice to Senior ManagementMake sure that managers are advancing employees equally and not showing favorites by hanging out with friends from work after work and then those friends are moved up faster than anyone else.

Manual Labor, but in the Best Possible Way

Sales Associate (Former Employee)
Los Angeles, CA (US)

I worked at In-N-Out Burger part-time for less than a year

ProsYoung, youthful staff, great pay, flexibility for students, people are genuinely happy to see you because they love In N Out, the workplace is light and the management is always understanding and helpful.

ConsYou do have to do manual labor, but you should know that full well joining the food and service industry.

Advice to Senior ManagementManagement gets so caught up with what they're doing, they sometime don't help the new hires "level up" and get higher up in the structure. It would help if new hires were a little more informed about the process from the beginning

Best fast food place you can work, fast-paced, family-owned, great people. Customers are the worst you can expect.

Associate Level IV (Former Employee)
Las Vegas, NV (US)

I worked at In-N-Out Burger part-time for more than a year

ProsFast-paced, lots of room for growth, once you're in, you're pretty much in. Extensive hiring process.. but all that means is they are selective in taking the best.

ConsAt the end of the day, you're working in fast food. Always on your feet, complicated customers complaining about tiny details, high level of stress, etc.
