Pluspunten

Great concept on paper. Great tasting, good for you foods are what people WANT more of, and what the industry NEEDS more of.

Minpunten

Ever since the Carlisle Group took over, the company has gone into a speeding downward spiral. It's crisis management mode nearly every day. Terrible hires at the executive level. Horrible execution in terms of quality of both food and service, all due to a dysfunctional business model. They have no control over food quality, since there are no kitchen managers in any of the restaurants. The owners completely underestimate the need for this position, due to the complexity of the kitchen operation. Customers get very upset daily, because of consistent order screw-ups, and terrible service given, which result from emphasis on cutting labor. There is no personal investment or development of corporate staff. Very insufficient training for mgmt and store level staff. Worse yet, there are a few bad apples at exec level, that have completely destroyed what was once a very positive corporate culture. It's the perfect recipe for disaster, which perfectly explains why the place is a disaster.

Pluspunten

The food tastes great, the restaurants are very comfortable with an inviting atmosphere, and the people --from the corp. office to the line cooks-- are friendly, hard-working, and doing their best to build a great culture and produce good food. It's still a small company, so shining stars stand out and have opportunities to move up.

Minpunten

From what I understand, the origins of the company weren't sustainable long-term as a national brand, so they have their work cut out for them to try to un-do what was wrong and implement changes to make it grow to the potential so many people think it has. It seems to be a rough time of changes and growing pains, but the changes they're making should pay off. It would be nice if they offered a 401k or bonus plan.
