I just think that Chipotle should give at least one free beer to closing employees. I would work harder if I knew I was getting a beer after close. Hardly anyone seems to be buying the beer and we are keeping a big stash on camera in the office to hoard. I get off work late sometimes, gas station is no longer serving beer. It's annoying.

-no one is buying the beer

-we have extra beer

-employees with a beer reward work better

Hi I’m an employee who’s been working with the company for now 2 years at my hometown which is pretty much in the middle of nowhere with a small population. Now I’m currently having a issue with my current GM manager. suddenly after getting a new field leader she’s been terrorizing the dish washer me and another person when I clock in at 5:30pm I get told we can’t be on dishes until 7:30 and I go in the back and not a single dish was done throughout the day prep dishes still being there… then I realize I have to take my lunch after 7:30 so I come at 8. 2 hours to clean everything that’s been dirty throughout the day. What makes things worse is that the GM complains about our labor we spend to much time after closing and if we do she cuts our hours but wait that’s not the ONLY THING if she sees you doing a bad job like dishes still being dirty after cleaning even a tiny tiny piece of rice on any of the dishes she cuts our hours. I am this close to just walking out literally leaving all the dishes dirty until 10 and just dipping. You can say it’s the new field leader enforcing the rules or what not but we’ve met him it’s the kindest person even helps out if he sees someone stressed. I started to put the minimum pay minimum work mindset meaning most if not all dishes are still dirty even after cleaning I will NO LONGER stress myself for this job.
(I forgot to mention that the GM doesn’t close so she leaves at 8 exact or earlier doesn’t even attempt to help or nothing)

At this location there’s way to many problems for example she hires but doesn’t train anyone even if she does train someone she expects you to do it perfectly first time after she’s shown you. I’m sure this is common in other chipotles but favoritism in my first year I’ve worked here I get only 5 hours a week and all her favorites got 30 or more. We actually used to have a manager that would over stock our supplies so we don’t run out and got in trouble for it every single time until she left and the GM did the ordering now half if not all our customers barely get what they ordered for. Since we constantly have new grills bc old ones can’t stand our GM they can’t keep up cooking chicken or any other meats she would start skimping on things especially on online I see half of those little salsa cups of chicken on a bowl marked double protein.

I already started sending applications out once I secured another job like I said leave all the dishes till closing and walking out… in my initial year I actually enjoyed working here. I miss my old crew

Please SIT DOWN to take a s*** some customers can poop through a screen door at 40 paces and not hit a single wire.

It looks like the burrito bowl hack may be an actual “hack” but what’s more interesting is how much less of a good deal the three taco order is…

New worker come in name redacted but she was 20 and when she came in she had a don't give a dam or i don't care type of attitude well. Few days pass we notice alot of her friends from university were coming in when she work those day almost all were from the athletic side we come to find out after me and a coworker saw she was giving people free food and giving her 50 discount to all her friends. My coworker told our manager if people could do that she said no and then went to the office told me to stay with her and see the cameras while I was in my break well we saw that she was giving away food while everyone was busy she didn't swipe the card to turn on the screen and she would act like she was doing the process of the purchase. After that we saw her give out our fountain drink cups even though they ask for the water cups in total she Gave out 900 dollars worth of food for free and counting. Same day she got confronted she got mad they called her out and then the next week on Saturday what a coincidence she gives her two week notice and says she broke her ribs.

Bro someone took a shit on the floor of the bathroom tonight. I cannot unsmell the things I have smelt.
Absolutely foul closing experience.

It's an all-round better option, while being similar enough to adobo chicken that having both is kind of silly. I'd go back to eating Chipotle 5x/week if this was always an option.

it's flavor, to me, was just perfect by itself (i asked to try it in a cup) and it really is fantastic with all of the other flavors. what do you think?

No, they didn’t.

It’s 10 PM. There are only 3 burrito places open within a 20-mile radius.

All 3 are Chipotle. None has over 3.2 stars

I’d rather go to bed hungry.

I miss 2015 Chipotle.

Good night

I’m just here to vent. Ordered from Chipotle twice in the last week. First order was a bowl with steak. There was 3 pieces of steak. 3. Tonight I orders again and ordered Pollo Asado with extra portion, so paid extra for the pollo Asado and extra for the double portion. Got exactly zero chicken.

Because I ordered from Uber Eats I am not allowed to context chipotle through their help system.

Super frustrating. Think I’ve finally reached the point of no more chipotle.

I live in a pretty nice city in the Midwest, so most fast food chains are ran pretty well. It’s not like Wendy’s in the ghetto at 11pm. I’m a huge chipotle fan, but the last couple years I’ve gotten tired of the cycle where you walk in and there are brand new people (usually young teenagers) and you can definitely tell the prep and especially the chicken wasn’t done right. Either heavily over seasoned or no seasoning at all. It’s frustrating because it’s so expensive just to roll the dice on some mediocre food. When it’s done right, I think it’s worth it. The only benefit to new people, is sometimes they hook you up cause they either don’t know, or don’t care.

So, I had a job interview last Friday and I got interviewed by some woman for like 10-15 minutes and she wrote down notes about the answers to her questions. Then she told me at the end of it that the main hiring manager wasn't there and that she was the assistant hiring manager. She after that said she would forward what I'd said to the main hiring manager and told me it would take 1-2 weeks to get a response. And to write down my email and phone number. Is this a good sign? Should I apply to other Chipotle's in the meantime near my area since there's like 3 or 4 other ones?

Mannnnnn 😫😫😫😫😫😫💦💦💦💦❤️‍🔥😮‍💨 i love the carne asada so muchhhhhhhh. i really wish it would come back !!!! 😭😭 i would get double every time i went and they had it. i really wish they would add it as a permanent menu item, im completely fine with phasing out one meat for permanent carne asada. maybe i should start a petition. all i know is that there is a hole in my heart that can't be filled. BRING IT BACK CHIPOTLE!!!!!

A few months ago our store got a "new" GM who hates me. If somebody doesn't like me as a person that's fine, but I've always been known as a hard worker and so I would expect managers to be able to act like adults. But this manager got our old AP transferred just bc she didn't like him, calls our coworker "it" and makes fun of him for being trans, and will always roll her eyes when I say anything or tell me to shut up. I used to always do DML bc I'm one of the fastest on it, but my last couple shifts she put me on line, and when I guess when that didn't irritate me she told me to open grill on a Sunday morning and gave me a 2 minute rundown despite the fact I've never done it. There was a kitchen leader, 2 BOH trainers, and an SL in training working; she only sent one of them to help me when I was drowning. Then right before I leave she conveniently "forgot" there were 2 caterings due in 30 minutes and sent my coworker up there to help me. I was pissed, I had 2 exams the next day, and I had plans after work so I asked my coworker if she was fine to handle it and clocked out when I was scheduled to. Well now I'm scheduled 6 hours this week and not at all next week, and I know we have the labor for it because the GM is still hiring ppl. GM was also the AP when they pulled this exact scheduling shit with my sister; and when she picked up a shift management had an SL text her that she was actually fired. I'm not playing a game of chicken with someone ten years older than me, so I found a new job and start tomorrow. I get scholarships so I don't rely on tuition reimbursement and this new job is way closer to my house anyways. I think I'm just going to text her right before my last shift on Sunday, and I might even make a report about her to Respectful Workplace for all the bullying and discrimination she shows to all the coworkers she doesn't like.

BRING IT BACCKKKKKKKK

Hello everyone, I’m writing to inquire about the process of securing a job with HQ. I reside in Columbus, and the Chipotle building, where HQ is located, is just a 12-minute drive from my home. Despite applying to over a dozen roles, I’ve consistently received rejection emails. I’m curious to understand how someone like me can obtain a job with HQ. Additionally, I’m aware that three of my acquaintances work there, but their experiences haven’t been particularly helpful. It’s important to note that I’ve thoroughly researched the job description and have demonstrated the necessary skills and qualifications.

1. We are understaffed. The whole store would be so much better if we had a person extra for positions. And given you can litteraly get my hourly pay from a single order, sure food costs/ this cost/ that cost and whatever but still.
2. Too many responsibilities for every position. You’re supposed to be a master cleaner, master with line, master with pos, master with customer service. I am just stretched so much, I have to clean bathrooms multiple times a day, I have to do line, I have to run to cash, I have to do dishes, I also have to cook and make chips/tacos, I have to open and close the store, throw trash multiple times a day.
3. Way too many responsibilities for way to little pay(I make minimum wage)
4. Not enough breaks. Managers have a vindetta if you just relax, if I sit down. I don’t care if I’m young, you can’t give me a break end of my shift than expect me to be sunshine and rainbows. Like if I wanna take 5 mins every few hours I should be able too. I am on my feet all day, I should be able to get 5 minutes.

And there is no motivation to even do your work faster, because if I do guess what than I don’t get to relax I have to do someone else’s job.

1. Mean customers, I am sorry you choose to add payed every topping and your bowl went from 13 to 20. Or you’re just in a bad mood, and wanna take it off on someone who by contract can’t do anything. And I also have 0 qualms in giving you extra food. Literally 0, manager will and has gotten on my case.

Than DoorDash drivers, I get it you have your troubles your waiting. But when there is a rush of 20 people and I’m cash I can’t just drop everything and check in the back. And even when I do they’re not ignoring your order they’re just swamped with 50 burritos.

1. Not enough pay. Only nice thing is free meal. I make minimum wage, even roles higher than me make a few dollars extra for double the work.

2. Perpetually expected to have a positive attitude. I can’t be tired when I’ve been working non stop.

3. Dumb rules. Sure I get labels, doing stuff properly and what not. I’m talking about stuff like not being able to get a sip of water when I’m at front of house. Getting dress coded for flipping my hat when I’m doing dishes at the back. Not being able to listen to music not even a single AirPod in the back doing 100 dishes. I can’t take my employee meal with me home, like even if I’m giving it to another person which I’m not. It’s a single employee meal what’s the big deal if I eat it or my sister does? So much more.

4. Tied with break but constant fixation on doing something. If me and my coworkers after 4hrs non stop working wanna chat for a few minutes we should be able too. Not get slapped with “guys I need you to be proactive”.

I don’t like chipotle if you couldn’t tell

This is insane but I had to weight it. 72g?!?! I’m reading 113g is standard?? 63%???

The customer service app has locked me out as well.

Even though I've been told that assertiveness is important as an SL, I've worked with several leaders & managers, and in my experience:

Assertiveness is important, but if you're not the strongest SL at your store, when compared to others, it's not the end of the world, especially when it all depends on your GM, AP, & crew, and how committed they are to their jobs (since I used to deal with some crew members who didn't care as much that were hired because they interviewed well enough, which was convincing enough for my former GM to hire them)

However, since my SL experience had its pros and cons, I still made sure stuff got done to the best of my ability, while dealing with some staffing issues & inconsistent crew members during that time, but since I'm starting at a new store soon as a re-trained SL, I'm hoping to have a better experience, so I don't have to deal with what I went through my first time around

I walked into chipotle at about 845pm in my area and when I got there they were out of pollo asado and other proteins…. There grill was already cleaned or almost done being clean…. Is that normal??

Currently in Michigan, i.e. the state hit the hardest by the cyclosporiasis outbreak. I haven't had Chipotle in almost 3 months and I am absolutely losing my mind lmao. ​I don't care about getting lettuce on top or as a salad, I just want a bowl with some cilantro lime rice. I don't need salsa, guac or anything else with raw produce at this point... but is the cilantro in the rice safe? Has anyone taken a chance and eaten it within the last month or so? SOS. I am withering away without my Chipotle fix.
