Service Manager

November 2014 • Charlotte, NC

What I liked

I’ve worked for the company for a couple of years now and overall it’s been an enjoyable experience. I’ve have to take a couple leave of absences for school and each time I am welcomed back with open arms.

What I wish was different

My store in particular has gone through many general managers and that, in my opinion, causes the growth of the store to slow down.

Advice

Do your best at doing your job and you can move up in he company as well as make th company better.

Kitchen Manager

January - September 2018 • St. George, UT

What I liked

I liked the responsibility. I also liked the cleanliness that Chipotle holds their restaurants to be.

What I wish was different

I wish that Chipotle had not micromanaged as much as they had and that they treated their employees better.

Advice

If you go to work for Chipotle, expect it to be very hard work and very customer oriented. With the amount of work that they have they should be paying more than other fast food, but they're average. They care more about their customers than their employees, but this will teach you how to work and how to manage your time properly to get things done.

The management and the way they treated those who violated rules.

Take the time to weigh the pros and cons of a job not only before you get it but while you're in it and after to examine the job and how it impacted you. Good resume fuel!

What I liked

I like working at Chipotle because it allows me to practice my leadership and communication skills in a fast-paced work environment. Being able to work on my customer service skills on a day-to-day basis in such an intimate setting has allowed to further expand my professional horizions.

What I wish was different

I would say overall the only thing I would have changed about my experience is the amount I worked each week. I averaged about thirty hours per week, but wish I could have worked fourty plus.

Advice

I would say come into this role with an open mind. Be willing to be part of a team and you will highly enjoy this opportunity. Communication, leadership, and accountablity are all huge aspects of this job.

What I liked

I love working at Chipotle. I've been there for almost 3 years and they are always accommodating with my school schedule. I love my crew and management.

What I wish was different

I work in the Valley Plaza location and sometimes we do get customers who are really rude and sometimes try to start problems with the crew over ridiculous things. I wish the company would back up their employees more.
