Pros

Always have something to do, you have time all day to be happy and show customers how much fun it is to be in the kitchen with your co workers. Fast pace. And you get secret shops 2 times a week and get extra money. Quarterly raises if your up to standard, opening is awesome and time flys , closing a little difficult but you get use to it.

Cons

Very strict, some people that run the place is very rude and dont follow by example, smells disgusting, and alot of grease to work with

Pros

They will teach you everything you need to be successful. They have much higher standards than most places, one of the few places I'd have no problem eating at any location. They'll make sure you have everything you need to meet those standards, especially once you get to a management level. They have corporate trainers and the GM at my location was also great. I'm a GM at a different place now and my experience here left me well prepared me for that position.

Cons

Pay. That's the only reason I left, I would have stayed with the company if I could have gotten a raise and I would definitely return if they offered something comparable to what I'm making elsewhere.
