Pros

Real opportunities, great benefits, chance to make something of yourself in a company you can feel proud to work for.

Cons

Rapid growth and expansion is causing lots of growing pains and turning the unique culture into a sink or swim situation for managers. Politics are becoming more dominant and if you don't have the right personality you might be on the outs. The company has a growing sense of entitlement, where they believe people should feel privileged to have any job at Chipotle. They are losing touch with the people aspect and becoming more and more of a heartless corporation.

Pros

Learning and growing to cultivate your own career path into a competent General Manager. The hours are longer than regular but the position is labeled as salary hourly with a minimum of 50 hours per week which guarantees 10 hours if overtime per week.

Cons

The long hours can be tiring and the expectations are less than or equivalent to that of a General Manager and depending who your boss is dependent on what you learn and how you can grow.
