Pros

Fun workplace You get trained in pretty much everything, then get to choose what you want to do daily Free food

Cons

if you're not in a very profitable store, corporate doesn't really care about you They rely on labor numbers heavily (like most hourly places), but if your store doesn't make a lot of money, sometimes your stuck working with just one other person - boring and takes longer to close down the store

Pros

Learning the basics how to preparing food, how to cleaning and cooking Meeting new people

Cons

Very bad management and managers. If you are working in Five Guys for 2 months You can be a supervisor - manager....without experience, without knowledge. I have very bad experience with work in Five guys. The only thing which was there good was our team - team of crew members...but I dont mean management - maybe 2 managers from 6 were good and professional... I didnt like the way how managers speak with crew members and how respect those people. If you want to work in Five Guys You have to live for Five Guys, because You will not have spare time. This job is only about hardworking and in free time about sleeping.
