Pros

Got to meet some interesting people, good overall work environment. Flexible with school schedule for students and gives good hours. All the work is pretty simple.

Cons

Never won the secret shopper bonus that lured me into the job in the first place. Need to depend on some not so loyal employees based on the location of the Five Guys.
