"I have worked at ARAMARK for more approximately 2 years. The people great and the projects are interesting. There is a lack of vision and direction in terms of the Enterprise per se. The leadership is too ingrained in the culture to make significant in-roads toward standardization and best practices."

"Worked summer at Fenway Park 2010-2013."

"I work in the higher ed line of business. At the account, we all basically work on top of one another. A few managers with admin assistants, except for the select few that have their own nice quiet office. GM provides no support to managers and will throw them under the bus or fire them without so much as giving it much thought. Their main focus is profit."

"I was fortunate to be placed in a regular stand with a tough but FAIR lead who trained our team extremely well. Work included food prep, register sales, and cleanup. For food service the pay was great but the work was intense with no breaks till stands closed down."

"Yes, the company treats me with respect, and I feel that I am a valued member of the team."

What needs to be understood is that the college cafeteria isn't considered 5 star dining, nor will it ever be."
