Pros

Free food is a bonus as it is delicious

Cons

Where to start. It's extremely disorganised (new menu launches scrapped and rewritten within days of the launch, new products pulled from all stores on the whim of the CEO leaving managers to tell customers the heavily advertised new items aren't actually available.) The CEO, while charismatic, is what can only be described as a narcissist, who makes at least one person cry a week and whose attitude trickles down through the organisation leaving people constantly on edge. Those at head office are consistently told they are nothing in comparison to team members (presumably to build the morale of team members, a nice gesture but can't everyone just be equal?!). There is also an expectation to make Leon your life, to live and breathe it, your twitter handle must relate to Leon, you must always be happy- even if your cat just died- you must not only be willing to go on 'away-days' to the CEO's house where unqualified people practice acupuncture on you (ouch!), but express extensive gratitude to your host about it too. Oh and the wages are embarrassing.
