I liked the workers (most workers and even some managers were around my age), the workplace (the restaurant was well organized and managed), and the food (which was cooked and seasoned perfectly) was very healthy and tasteful.
What I wish was different
I wish the schedule was released earlier than Sunday nights because some workers had trouble knowing they worked Monday morning shifts until they would get a call from the manager asking them to show up or other workers to back their shifts.
I also wished that Chipotle would ask the customers for tips since the workers work really fast and are under pressure to serve the next customers.
Advice
I personally really enjoyed working at Chipotle because I felt like I wasn't forced to work on my shift, but I got to sustain my favorite food chain at home along with great coworkers who always help each other.

Manager
October 2018 - July 2019 • Tyler, TX
What I liked
The connections I made with people throughout East Texas
What I wish was different
The way the store was managed by the GM. He had a good start but quickly let his authority overcome who he was as a person.
Advice
Never be afraid of taking charge. Managing is pretty easy. It’s just a lot of paperwork but with the right mindset, anybody can accomplish the tasks at hand.
