Pros

In the 3 years I've been with KFC UK&I, I've grown more personally and professionally than with any previous employer. I truly appreciate the investment in personal development alongside functional skills that my coach and the brand invests in me. I work alongside a team that I trust - and we're encouraged to be brave and disruptive in our thinking - which allows us to make quick and dynamic decisions. The investment in my personal wellbeing is also HUGE - I feel very confident taking time away from work during the day to prioritise my physical and mental health. I have also benefitted from cross-functional moves in my career giving me exposure to functions that I had never previously considered... this has given me real breadth to support my longer term growth.

Cons

Working in QSR ultimately means you're working in an industry that doesn't stop. I love this pace and diversity, but if you're after structure and consistency, this brand isn't suitable for everyone.

Pros

It's an incredible place to work - I can't see myself working anywhere else. The culture is unlike anywhere else I know, fun, friendly, we don't go in for hierarchy very much, everyone is valued for their contributions and really encouraged to be themselves, to be authentic. The company focuses on mental health and wellbeing and I feel genuinely cared for. I love what I do - I feel I'm making a difference and the job is very varied, fast paced, never boring! But it's the people that make KFC what it is. I'm surrounded by super smart people that inspire me daily, but also they're just nice! I haven't come across anyone yet that I wouldn't want to grab a beer with. If you're looking to join a high performing team where you can grow your career but also be truly cared for - this is the place.

Cons

It's not an easy job - we all work very hard. But it's perfect for anyone who is willing to get stuck in and work as part of the team.
