Pros

You get a drink while you're working and food occasionally.

Cons

The manager only hired Latinos. I liked my co workers. However, its difficult to be trained by someone who speaks a language you do not. I was given a maximum of six hours a week. It did not matter how hard I worked or how many times I asked for extra hours. I was not one of the favorites. When I did work my tips where always given to someone else. My paychecks were always late. The management was just very disorganized and unprofessional.
