Pros

Great benefits: company car, laptop, cell phone. Opportunity to serve food with integrity. Fast paced environment and happy customer base.

Cons

Senior management is awful. They treat everyone like slaves and expect managers to work 60+ hours every week. The past two years I was only able to use half my vacation time! 2010 I used 1 of 3 available weeks and no one even batted an eye or said thanks. There is a true disconnect between the restaurants and regional staff and they provide very little support. I oversaw 2 restaurants and probably spent a total of 3 hrs a month with my Team Leader and even less with my Team Director. Food with integrity is something they have achieved.. now how about treating your people with integrity... The animals are treated better than the employees!!!!!!

Pros

Lots of flexibility and good company benefits. Cool office space and good people. The company wants you to learn more and give you the opportunity to do so.

Cons

In the corporate space, very limited career growth opportunities. Current manager micromanages but not terribly. Company performance stinks and leadership does not want to take accountability.
