Pros

Good people. Good concept. What Chipotle Corp. stands for is amazing but it's just not getting all the way to the restaurants any more.

Cons

At the end of the day it's all about the bottom line. I personally have seen GM's including myself get little or no support then get fired for not doing a good job. I loved this company to my core, but I was still fired when my boss felt like I wasn't promoting managers when I didn't even have enough managers to run shifts how was I suppose to find time to train New managers in such a small period of time at a brand new store. But I tried to stay positive and was working 80 to 100 hours a week to get the training done and still got let go.

Pros

Free food for breaks, young team, not many crazy customers compared to other fast food restaurant chains

Cons

Always short-staffed at night and double the work from the mornings, the manager has to close multiple positions alone, with insufficient and poor training because God forbid you clock in to learn how to work best.
