Pros

They have high standards written into the literature, and managers expect quality. Associates are encouraged to "own" their stations, to be personally invested in the food they serve. Online training is also available. Managers are easy to get a hold of.

Cons

High standards and quality ONLY exist in their literature. The food is institutional, unhealthy, and often handled improperly. Associates consist of those who will work for as little as possible, so for the most part, they are uneducated, untrained and unmotivated. Managers have no real time left to them for actually managing due to the ever-pressing corporate structure that demands more fudged paperwork then good food.

Pros

preparing the meals was the only good part.

Cons

Management is not very professional and will run your life force dry. They will overwork you by adding additional work and expecting you to complete the impossible. Management does not like to hire and will over work their current employees to stress and burnout. There is no time for rest, only fast paced continuous work. You get one thirty minute meal break that consists of bland breakfast after only working 2.5 hrs. You're not allowed to eat the lunch you prepared. There is zero respect for your life outside of work. To Eurest/Compass you are only a performing monkey. Run while you can.
