Pros

Decent pay and some free food is about all I can think of.

Cons

You are subject to being harassed, bullied, sexually assaulted, and retaliated against by upper management and when you speak out, it is your fault. Employees are badly mistreated. Students are taken advantage of and so are university organizations. If you want to be a part of a company that steals from the campuses they manage, this is the right place for you. If not, run as fast as you can!

Pros

Truly, only a few select I conversate with and I watch what I say.

Cons

The challenges are not getting your verification of hours worked on a weekly basis. You have to ask management then they have a lie waiting as to why they are unable to provide the information. You have various people not doing 12-13 hour shifts, HR is a joke, you was hired for one job title, but when you start working management have you doing five jobs. I've worked under these conditions less than two months and in the process giving my two week notice.

Pros

My hourly staff was very good. They were hard-working and reliable but had a bad attitude that was brought about by the upper level management. Other than my staff, there are no pros to this company.

Cons

NO work-life balance. This company is the worst. The account was perpetually under-staffed and it seemed to be that way on purpose. The middle management / chefs worked 70 to 80 hour weeks with no compensation or appreciation - as though that was expected. The upper level managers take and take and take. They are abusive and do nothing but berate the employees. This was by far the worst working experience I have had in my 30 year career. When I quit, my other managers and most of the hourly staff quit as well.
