Pros

The free meals are a definite plus, especially when your on a budget. Many people receive free meals after shifts. It was incredibly fast paced which meant shifts were quick. My schedule was respected throughout my time there. You form a bond with people doing the work and their were hardworking people there.

Cons

I talked to management about me buying myself a longer broom but it would not be allowed, because their length is meant to be unobtrusive to customers I injured my back and had received physical therapy and quit this job to recover.

Pros

Good enough part time job for students and those needing to supplement their income. Small discount on the food.

Cons

Very poor management structure in place and proper training was lacking. Really greasy and you will usually stink after your shift.

Pros

The employees are very friendly. Simple tasks, Easy work, Free meal, Very little stress to no stress from work. Temperature controlled kitchen. (Does not get too hot) Very clean environment. Perfect shopper scores give you additional check benefits if you are there during the shift. Very easy menu options. When work is properly performed, customers are very pleased and don't bother anyone.

Cons

Work on feet all day But, you do get breaks and it's not that bad. May get burned by fryer or meat from grill a little. Not much room for advancement or pay raise.
