Pros of working at Whataburger

Interacting with the people

Cons of working at Whataburger

The GM would come once week and she loved how the customer's appreciated and loved me. She saw how hard I worked, she told the manager to give me a raise. I worked on holidays whenever someone called in. She knew to call me because I'm the only one to answer my phone on my day off when I've seen the number I work there. 7 months and didn't get a raise. She was fired and I left the job, but I feel unappreciated and it just got overwhelming, cause I'm not a octopus, but after 3 weeks of working there I was a cashier/cook/front counter etc

Pros of working at Whataburger

I would say the work life balance, I don't have a set schedule and sometimes the hours you get each week varies. If you want more free time to do things outside of work this is the place for you, if you want a job that you can fully rely on getting the same pay each week I would look else where.

Cons of working at Whataburger

The favoritism from management when it comes to employees.

Whataburger benefits
