Pros
The food is really good, it's fun to learn to cook and learn their recipes, and there is a laid-back environment.
Cons
The leadership at this location was flawed. I was originally told that I would be on a fast-track to management because of my advanced degree and experience in management. Three days into the job, there was a very noticeable drop in the training and attention they paid me. They didn't have a new hat for me, I had to wear some hand-me-down, and they only had a XXL shirt. I never got a proper fitting shirt, nor a new hat, nor the non-slip shoes they asked me to order. Every shift I was relegated to washing dishes because nobody took the time to train me on anything else; yet frequently the assistant store manager and store manager would ask me pointed questions about my improvement and progress. Despite my previously mentioned education and experience (I have a masters degree in organizational psychology and I've been a supervisor at a fitness center), I was most often treated like I didn't know a thing, in fact, I was slow and behind in the progress they expected. Once, the restaurant manager lied about another crew member reporting that I had a bad attitude. I called him out about it and the subject was dropped. To sum it up, they hired me, then forgot about me. Eventually, they blamed me for all of it when the restaurant manager brought me to his office to let me go. He took no responsibility for what happened (more like what neglected to occur) in my time there and said simply, that not everyone fits into the Chipotle culture. I would never recommend anyone to work at that location unless they are fresh out of high school or have no other options, because that's all they hired over there. I believe I had a great amount of promise for management there and they let me go, meanwhile, they have customers complaining that employees are goofing off and shoving each other around the hot fryer. Good luck trying to become a restaurateur!!
