  • Subway

    Subway does not have company stores as they know they are not profitable. When they did have some they didn’t run well. Over the decades Subway brought people from the field that were not good leaders and/or weak managers (dept heads). I was surprised to see how generally weak employees were at HQ.

  • Great content, spotty audio

    I love the content and insights of each episode but audio quality needs improvement. The latest Raising Canes episode was extremely hard to hear given the use and recording of a speaker phone. Suggestion: record all episodes through Skype or other online platform.

  • Halal guys

    Really people were coming from California and Canada to eat their food from a cart in NYC. And their delivery via 3rd party is 35% of their business. Stop the fake news.
