How does working at a cafeteria provider like Bon Appetit compare to working at a restaurant? By that I mean a place where office workers are likely to get lunch daily, where the typical lunch costs <$10.

Also consider that workplace cafeteria jobs generally have fixed schedules with weekends off.

Never worked at a mass catering company like Compass Group myself, but I know people who have. They are terrible places to work compared to a restaurant.

The smaller catering companies, with <30 employees aren't usually too different from a restaurant, but the big ones are run by corporate bean counters, where everything and everyone is just a number in a spreadsheet.

I guess it's no different from your local mom & pop Italian restaurant vs Olive Garden in that respect though.
