Great place if you can ignore the unprofessional managers.The good thingsAs a crew member, this can be a great place to work. Free shift meals, fun restaurant team outings 1-2 times a year, paid for by Nando's (except it will not happen if all restaurants are short-staffed so no other restaurant in your area can cover yours for half a day - Nando's will not let the restaurant shut).
Full-time managers do however get additional opportunities to learn, an iconic annual Christmas party, and there's an open-bar at every event. Also get a (small) quarterly bonus if the restaurant reaches its targets.
The challengesRequired to work a lot of overtime - sometimes up to 10 hours per week with no extra pay. Upper management can be unprofessional and abus!ve but nothing is done if they're making good money for the company. Some ridiculous decisions are made by head office that impact the busier restaurants far worse. Extra work is added such as more items to prep, but no extra labour is given to account for it.
