Pros

Great people and place to work, good opportunities for bonuses and free food

Cons

District Managers and beyond are really quite demanding, expecting a lot from you but not giving you much back. Don' offer sponsorship for really fantastic employees.

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.
