Pros

Pretty good starting pay, great benefits, awesome corporate culture. The vast majority of people there are just awesome.

Cons

VERY lean corporate environment. Depending on the department you're in, you will be told you do not need to work over 45 hours/week but you will if you want to compete with your peers who are working 60+. Favoritism is a factor depending on who you're working under. There was much to be desired in the area of communication. My Exec. Director was fantastic but my immediate manager was not - this created major problems.

Pros

They celebrate small successes and their focus is on getting the job done. Very open and supportive to developing their internal staff and promoting within.

Cons

can become very rigid when you challenge the wrong person although they encourage it. Claims its apart of development but truth be told it is your death sentence. if you want to be successful here don't grow a brain and know your place if your in leadership.

Main Office in Denver

Pros

Great to work for a hot company that is changing the way the world thinks about and eats fast food. The whole idea of food with integrity is amazing. Most of the people are smart and fun to work with.

Cons

Working in the Denver office is like high school all over again. There is no incentive to do the right thing - you just have to be in the right group and say yes. And the stress due to the backstabbing is intolerable.
