Pros of working at Five Guys

The Managers where pretty cool there, So were most of the co-workers.

Cons of working at Five Guys

There wasn't much there. As far as fast food, I'd imagine that it's about average, but room for advancement was pretty much a 50 cent raise above minimum wage, and then try for management for another 50 cent raise.

Five Guys benefits

Really the only benefit to working at Five Guys is the employee discount on the food. The food was overpriced for what you got. Pretty decent if money isn't an issue, but definitely too expensive without the discount.

The environment is wonderful and I love the employees that work there. They’ve all become my friends and they always have my back when I need a ride home or something in that manner

Cons of working at Five Guys

Hours getting cut due to over hiring and the general manger getting switched to a new one. I sure assure you I always show up to work I need the money

Five Guys benefits

Free food comes with a perk of working there.

Pros of working at Five Guys

Atmosphere and fun environment

Cons of working at Five Guys

Not being able to serve all customers. Every day customers comes in looking for heathy options like turkey burger, bean burger or vegetarian. We should have a more diversified menu. I’ve seen families where one one or two people out of the group eating. Sad
