Pros

Free food on break, fun atmosphere

Cons

Redundant training! I had to watch a video on how to cut tomatoes and various odd and dumb kitchen tasks then take a test on it. Not letting you clean certain items until certain times, I understand customer is first but making employees wait and the fear of a night hit on a secret shopper isn't right.

Pros

Fast paced with okay pay. There is free food when you work and when you come outside of work. The sectret shopper system is also useful and motivating

Cons

Little room for movement and sometimes disorganization within the workers. There can be some long shifts at night when people come in late
