The training process was all a waste of precious time and food. They treated us like a bunch of kindergarteners. - Front Line Chipotle Employee Review

Pros

Free Buritos and drink at lunch, like any other restaurant job.

Cons

You are working under a microscope. They were mostly focused on hiring Hispanics on the floor; out of 40 people who were hired, only 4 were non-hispanic. During the training week, they let all 4 of us go. Funny thing is the store managers and upper management were mostly white, black (non-hispanics). Which was surprising, since you don't need to be able to speak spanish to role a burito, or know how to operate machinery, or better yet, greet customer in a "business/office/upper class" neighborhood.

Pros

Free food for breaks, young team, not many crazy customers compared to other fast food restaurant chains

Cons

Always short-staffed at night and double the work from the mornings, the manager has to close multiple positions alone, with insufficient and poor training because God forbid you clock in to learn how to work best.
