Pros

opportunity for growth, free food.

Cons

Management!! Before my interview I searched for some reviews on EATALY through here, most reviews worst than others, but I chose to ignore those comments and still went on for my interview at EATALY. I figured those negative reviews have to do with working on the floor in the actual supermarket, I thought to myself corporate shouldn't be bad as bad as what these employees are saying. but i was WRONG, corporate is just as bad, if anything worst. The training was horrible! The ambiance and overall feel to everyone is off and grey and grainy. Your lucky enough to find some co-workers who aren't snobby and prissy. As for the managers, totally sexist, rude, totally unprofessional and unfair. They will welcome you and still chew you up and spit you out as if nothing seems to matter. I would not recommend this company. Literally listen to these reviews and turn away. Don't waste your time. A *2.7* rating I mean come on, they're obviously not doing something right.

Pros

Decent community and work environment, huge team so you’ll definitely meet some interesting people. Good for gaining early experience in the restaurant industry

Cons

Volume is unpredictable and inconsistent, so you have to be prepared to either be in the weeds with minimal assistance from management or ready to idle for 3 hours with two walk-ins per hour and no reservations. And the tourists are exceptionally insufferable here
