Advice to Senior Management

Start thinking more of your employees and less about your wallet and to make

Pros

15 percent discount on food...? I did enjoy meeting the customers...most people wouldn't even think about customers in this way, but it was the only positive thing about the job.

Cons

You give and give and you never get anything back. Lack of training, lack of management, lack of benefits, lack of feedback. They are only worried about sales...but don't schedule enough people to get the job done. Why do that when you can just work someone harder and harder...what are they going to do...quit? Yes finally you decide it's just not worth it.

Advice to Senior Management

Most of my "Managers" were barely out of high school. The other's are only looking out for their own pocket. Period. The Managers at Braum's are highly paid fast food workers. They do not know anything about Management...Leadership? Not even a word used there.

Pros

Great Pay compared to industry comp for GM who work hard
Bonus system rewards performance
Quality products especially in Fresh Market side of business
Good Opportunity to advance within Store Management

Cons

Lots of hours even for industry known for requiring alot
GM is only salaried manager in each store
GM schedule is bad - 10am to 7:30p if you want to be sucessful that will be more like 8-8 plus some additional time due to labor budgets and employee emergencies

Advice to Senior Management

Really listen to GMs at store level and give more decision making ability at store level - have 2 Asst Mngr be salaried position as well giving the GM more support in staying on budget and dealing with employee turnover/issues also allow would allow GM to work reasonable hours the 48-52 the company claims you will work when you come aboard
