Pros

Good introduction to customer service; mostly simple tasks that provide room for improvement in multiple areas, so that the work need not always be mundane; hands–on work; social employee environment/workspace: these are some positive aspects from my personal experience working at Subway.

Cons

Odorous work environment; franchise often indicates variability in management and associate acceptability, as was the case with my manager; often many young employees, which mostly leads to trivial, otherwise avoidable qualms and disorganization.

Pros

Very flexible scheduling, especially if your manager is willing to work around all their employees. You usually get a 50% discount that you can use once a day too.

Cons

Direct district management at this location does not know how to manage people. He will not really do anything to help or assist until his supervisors look into his stores and what he does. He will shift blame onto any general manager he can, and if any district manager decides you are doing your job incorrectly or you need to adjust what you are doing, there will be little to no support in helping you become a better employee. It really can become a "popularity contest" when you work in store management. If you are a regular employee or shift lead, you won't really have any direct contact with district management.
