Great working environment, with the exception of "favoritism"

Pros

Relaxed scheduling, great peers with the exception of management. Amazing benefits!

Cons

Outdated operating systems related to the sheer magnitude of the revenue they generate. The HR department is the most unfriendly, uncaring staff I've ever met. I wouldn't feel comfortable going to them for anything.

Pros

The People and Company Culture, Great Corporate Events, Work/Life Balance, Great Benefits. Five Guys started as a family business and each member of the family plays a significant role in running the company. They are very hands on, and its cool to see them around the office; their passion for the business is pretty contagious. And, they really put forth a great effort into getting to know their employees.

Cons

Currently not much room for growth (upward mobility), Communication throughout departments can be lacking, Location (The office is kind of off the beaten path). Pros definitely outweigh the cons though.

Pros

Free food while working. That is it.

Cons

Upper Management!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The district manager lies to cover there own butts at the cost of the employees! When corporate took over the newly promoted DM has a power trip and when you take your issue to HR she covers it up by saying "hes a teddy bear". If your looking for a career KEEEP LOOOKING!
