Pros

Great if you want to build muscle Co-workers are great and friendly Good starter job as you need to be a friendly and satisfy customers

Cons

Not really a bad thing but you need to know that working here is a very hands on experience, you’ll be lifting heavy containers such as five gallon buckets full of water and fries, stocking up on cups and such At my store there’s a lot of maintenance that needs to be done and such

Great work environment and amazing food, but difficult job with inconvenient hours

Business Outlook

Pros

Exceptionally clean and efficient work environment - feel a part of something special Amazing food on shift (usually half an hour paid break with essentially unlimited food) Mystery shopper bonuses mean extra £30-70 every few weeks (or more if you're lucky)! Not boring - always things to do

Cons

Difficult for the pay - takes months or even years to learn everything Hours are difficult - opening means starting at 6am, closing means finishing after 2am sometimes Some issues with management - coerced into taking / not taking shifts, hours cut below contracted hours Stressful for some when busy
