Pros

50% off your meal when you're not on the clock. Free if it's right before or right after (and during) work and cool people!

Cons

It's a pretty well known fast food restaurant chain so mine is busy CONSTANTLY.

Pros

- Day goes by quickly - Work tasks are both easy to learn and relevant to cooking at home - Fairly flexible schedule and decent overtime opportunities - Free burritos every day you work

Cons

**Before I start, let me make it very clear that I seriously, SERIOUSLY doubt that the store I worked at was the norm. I have been told by many other people that Chipotle is a great place to work, but none of them were at my particular store. Barring my extremely unpleasant experience, I'm sure I'd have given a three- or four-star rating if I had been at another location. - Being casually and deliberately debased and defamed by an apathetic, world-weary set of managers that care about nothing more than the amount of pay they're receiving: Steve Ells' vision of speedy learning and sensible advancement is in no way appropriate to the environment - Getting breaks is somewhat akin to pulling teeth: if you smoke, get ready to deal with a whole lot of eye-rolling as you "waste company time poisoning yourself" and getting threatened to have your lunch break reduced or eliminated altogether - Irresponsible coworkers that do not follow basic safety procedures and hygiene guidelines - Interviews are held in-store, in front of customers
