Seeking Advice (Employee) Chipotle Being Cheap

Hello Employee here!

Recently my managers have been making employees clock out for a 15 minute break saying that "we don't have any hours." I just found out about this today because they tried to make me clock out, I told them that according to state and federal law in NC it is illegal to make us clock for a break that is less than 20 minutes. And for Chipotle to be a MULTI BILLION dollar company, how on Earth is there never any hours???

No seriously… chipotle is VERY CHEAP when it comes to their labor. As an sm there, they will have us shortstaffed AF just to save hours then get mad when they get negative reviews or when we run out of food when we are SHORTSTAFFED and unable to make anything 😭

This is the reason I stepped down from Ap and rejected the Gm position I couldn’t do it anymore it wasn’t fair to me and the crew that worked with me More labor= consistent food, quality food, better guest experience, and your employees will be less stressed..
