Pros
Opportunities are great and benefits are unbeatable. Everyone is empowered to make their path and experiences in the company the way they want it to be as long as it is in line with their policies.
Cons
In the operations side, it is a lot of hard work for little money, from crew to management. But they've built such a unique culture in many stores that many people work hard for anyways because they care about the people around them. It is a team environment that works for each other. Changes are happening in the company to where they are shifting focus on "business culture" because of the company stock and because of rapid expansion in which is difficult to keep up with the need of managers for stores that will meet their continually evolving high standards. I love the Chipotle and everything they stand for and I believe the opportunities are worth work if your the right person who can achieve it. Its a big company and you can expect politics to play a huge role in upper management, politics is destroying the passion that this company is trying to inspire.
