Good company, good people, cumbersome processes

Pros

Good contract salaries, not much in the way of micromanaging, many people assume I am full-time. Most of those I work with are very collaborative and seem to care.

Cons

Senior management knows not what they ask of their direct reports, seem to be out of touch with the inordinately cumbersome processes for which we are responsible for maintaining. While the intentions are good and ideas often brilliant, senior management tries to do too much, too fast.

Pros

You'll develop relationships with restaurant owners and chefs. It's a good resume builder if you're looking to develop a career in sales or administration elsewhere. Good flexibility in your daily schedule. Moderate medical benefits package but a great 401K.

Cons

It will require you to make significant sacrifices to your personal and professional life. To my knowledge, it is rare to receive your first bonus before the 3-5 year mark. A vast majority of expenses are from your personal finances. 6 day minimum work weeks within Tucson and Metro Phoenix. Most MA's work a second job to make ends meet. I would definitely not recommend this position for women or minorities.
