Pros

I am absolutely amazed at the wealth of opportunities to grow a career at Restaurant Associates. The dedication to training and development is like none I've witnessed and the

Cons

I have to say the only thing I can think to say is Restaurant Associates is very large and you can feel how robust the company is from time to time. But the opportunities to explore the large berth of the organization helps outweigh the sometimes diminutive feelings you can have from time to time.

Pros

If you work the right contract the holiday schedule is nice. Never ending supply of company branded temu quality merch as gratitude for a job well done.

Cons

Tend to make knee jerk reactions in management. Upper management support is performative. Endless half useful meetings that should be emails given they tout a great work life balance but bog you down in processes that change weekly. Merit increases are measly at best. Required 50 hr work week but it’s frequently 55-60. Vacation and sick time are taken in half day intervals so leaving an hour early results in a half day loss. No real system allowing breaks for lunch. I was told i could sit down for 15 mins at the end of lunch service to eat but that is seldom achievable. HR will throw you under the bus given the first opportunity and will not support you when dealing with problematic employees. Management turnover is extremely high.
