Pros
The only reason I'm currently employed by Gourmet is they have the contract to staff the Convention Center. I will change employers again when their contract ends with AEG
Cons
Gourmet is a fledgling of the catering industry, they lack the respect of many of their employees. Gourmet enforces many links and reviews. I'm not sure why they insist on displaying these many links in each and every email sent to me. I couldn't care less about an excellence review, they all sound the same, like it was written by one their administrator of the site.boasting the same person. B have to prove it each time i view an email from them. Anyone who has been in the industry would feel the same, "That was last year, last event....You can brag all you like, but what does it do for me now?" Indeed they want us to believe they hold these high standards, But I'm not impressed. Especially when you're scheduling your own employee who won't even put linen on a table correctly?! if your staff is going to be at the Hawaii Convention Center, you do not schedule an employee who never been in the food and beverage department or doesn't have experience..Send them offsite since this you so "Exceptional?" The Convention Center is not a training facility, Furthermore nobody wants to train Gourmet's newbies w/o being compensated. We were paid the rate we are paid. Its what we were paid b4 you won the contract.. Just because your own employees aren't paid the same pay as we do, doesn't mean you should take advantage and force Convention to train the subordinates?! Our pay isnt compensation. Where's the incentive in that?
