Pros

Honestly, you will deal with some many people, and not all of them have been graced with manners. Or understanding that no, you are not denying them things out of spite, sometimes the McFlurry machine breaks and you need to wait for the technician to fix it. You will emerge from this experience with the patience of Job and a poker face that will land you victories in all card games. Other pro, trauma bonding with your colleagues.

Cons

See above but without focusing on the gains.

Pros

Experience varies heavily depending on the owner/operator you work for. Free and discounted food. 2 weeks PTO. Vision, Dental and Health insurance. Offers rapid development opportunities.

Cons

Work-life balance is nonexistent. In fact, the director of operations has stated numerous times, “Work life balance is a myth”. The company states you are required to work 45 hrs/week minimum; Realistically, GM’s can expect to work 55-60 hours in store with constant calls and messages when home. The company does not count any work done outside of the restaurant toward your 45hr requirement. There is no training for this position as you are expected to figure it out on the job. They offer $2000 per month performance bonus but are always finding new ways to disqualify you and move the goalposts when you actually earn it.
