Pros

I loved the sense of family that i had at Smashburger. The sense of teamwork was very strong. I also learned sooo much about being front of house. My multi-tasking skills were definitely sharpened after a year. An excellent first restaurant job.

Cons

The pay was trash and the hours were scarce. Blatant favoritism. Managers take their frustrations out on the employees.

Pros

There isn’t many pros about this company besides it helps you grow in a kitchen if trained properly.

Cons

Management is a joke, Teamwork is a joke. Manager’s will be on their phones while you’re only one cook in the back running everything and never offer to help and when they do it’s barely any. The higher ups will expect so much out of you and run you into the ground with work then wonder why you’re so burnt out. It doesn’t feel like a job but more like torture working here and that’s just a start of what goes on here.
