What I liked

A fast-paced, diverse job that opens numerous opportunities to learn more about the campus and staff at Sam Houston State University. Managers are very understanding and flexible towards students.

What I wish was different

Very early mornings and late nights can make for long workdays.

Advice

Get to know people in every branch of Aramark, from the cooks to the servers to the dishwashers. It makes a difference having people you can trust to step in when you are in a bind or need help. The people working here are amazing and truly care about the employees who get engaged with the team.

Concessions Supervisor at PNC Park

February - October 2019 • Pittsburgh, PA

What I liked

I enjoyed the fast paced environment, being on my feet for most of the time and having the ability to do more then just run a concessions stand. I had the opportunity to do the finances, integrate sales in my role, problem solve, and resolve customer issues. Overall, I couldn't ask for a better team of fellow supervisors and stand leaders.

What I wish was different

At times, we were understaffed which became an issue during heavily populated pirates games. I wish Aramark hired more employees not only as supervisors, stand leaders, cashiers, and cooks but also in other departments such as IT, and the Warehouse.

Advice

As a supervisor, communication is CRUCIAL to the success of your job. You will be faced with up to 10 tasks at a time. Take notes, stay off your phone, and listen to your boss, your co-workers, and those that work below you. If you can communicate effectively and efficiently, you will do well at this position.

June - August 2019 • Denver, CO

What I liked

The job was laid out really nice and all tasks were explained well. The business side of everything was also explained which was really cool.

What I wish was different

Sometimes work was the same thing every day. Or the work was only a one day task that I was given a week for. There wasnt too many hard working days.
