A fun enviroment, and a great place to work, but it is not a good job if you need money, unless you are a manager.

Pros

Great atmosphere to work with, the people behind the line are even better. Great advancement opportunity in the individual stores. Good quality fiood to serve and eat.

Cons

You can cap your advancement within the company. Individual stores are quick to promote, but once you've reached that level, it's finished. The work must be done hard, and to the point. You will be constantly pushed to continue, even if not thought possible.
