Pros

Smashburger was my first job and I loved it when I started. I had a really great manager and a warm and welcoming staff. It's easy to learn everything. Discounted (often free if the cooks like you) food, free drinks all day. It's a good backup. I'm always gonna know how to do it. When you're 16 and don't wanna be in fast food but still wanna be a server, it's a good choice.

Cons

Ridiculous rules- not allowed to accept tips. Mediocre pay. Had three manager changes in seven months.

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.
