Pros

Fast growing Largest Asian fast food chain Challenged to learn about yourself and leadership

Cons

- Authoritative leadership practiced by tenured leaders (similar to founder) - Difference in opinions, cultures and experiences not valued - "My way or the highway" is seen alot in day to day interactions - If you disagree you are labeled as having bad mindset - Company has a great set of values - but unfortunately not many practice them - You are pressured to pay for leadership training that if not taken you are publicly criticized - If you do not follow your leader blindly you are seen as not being a team player - Many associates work out of fear (especially now with recession) of losing their jobs and lack of opportunities
