Pros: Good food, good environment.
The people are all really great, and the company really trains you well. Maybe the most structured training program I've seen. Very professional but friendly environment.
Cons: Too crowded, need valet parking.
The location isn't ideal. It's kind of a not-so-nice part of town. Many people commute an hour each way since they don't want to live in the area.
