Pros

I was originally hired with Aramark Aviation Services and the unit that I worked for was amazing! Great Quality of Life, Great Opportunities, Great Interaction with Senior Management. Aramark decided to pull out of the Aviation industry and I was offered a position in our Business and Logistics division running a warehouse for our Amtrak account. It is complete chaos, aboslutely no communication, management required to work 6 days beacuse of short staff with absolutely no COMP Time compensation. You will be scheduled to come in for your assigned shift lets say from 12-9pm and then you are told you need to work your shift and come back at 4am to open up the warehouse. It is rediculous. Absolutely no communication between senior management and mid management. It is horrible.

Cons

Pros

Company gives good benefits to employees, such as free lunch, discounts on shopping, budget for travel, along with the typical insurance and PTO

Cons

Sincerely actually not that many. Because the benefits are so good, sometimes you’re expected to do work outside of work hours.

Pros

Working as a Lead Barista has been a rewarding experience that has helped me grow both professionally and personally. The role has strengthened my leadership, communication, and problem-solving skills while allowing me to mentor and support team members. I enjoy creating positive customer experiences, managing daily operations, and ensuring high standards of quality and service. The fast-paced environment has taught me how to multitask effectively, stay organized, and work under pressure. This position has also provided valuable experience in training staff, inventory management, and team collaboration. Overall, being a Lead Barista has been an excellent opportunity to develop skills that are transferable to leadership and project management roles.

Cons

While being a Lead Barista has provided valuable leadership and customer service experience, the role can be challenging at times. The fast-paced environment often requires managing multiple responsibilities simultaneously, including customer service, beverage preparation, inventory management, and team support. Staffing shortages and high customer volume can create stressful situations, especially during peak hours. The position also requires long periods of standing, frequent lifting, and maintaining energy throughout the shift. Additionally, balancing leadership responsibilities with daily operational tasks can be demanding, particularly when addressing customer concerns or training new employees while meeting service expectations
