Wonderful community of like-minded individuals who share the same passion to serve in the Sports & Entertainment industry.

- 1.0Nov 8, 2023Executive ChefCurrent Employee, less than 1 yearPhoenix, AZ
Pros
Schedule is good on the surface, but as a salaried manager, expect to be pulled in at a moment’s notice to put out a fire someone else started.
Cons
Managers do not have employees best interest in mind. People are just utilities, not humans. A culture of fear keeps managment in line and this is aggressively passed on to subordinates. Promises aren’t kept. Inefficiency runs rampant. Revolving door for staff is practically part of their core values. Compass is a corporation that truly lives by “Too big to fail”.

Pros
If you complain alot or are of the male gender you can get whatever you want!
Cons
Management is a nightmare, they do not know what they are doing, promote chaos and enjoy employees that bring chaos to work, they go against health codes, SOP's and THEY JUST DON'T CARE. They are usually m.i.a, and don't count on any support if you have any issues that hinder you from doing your job, and you can count on having to deal with the most unbelievable issues, it's shocking!!!
