Pros

Available bonuses, as well as hours from 8am-11pm to be worked, so hours can be flexible. Free food every shift as well.

Cons

My branch was owned by a family that also owned three others, so it was different than a corporate franchise. I was payed about $1.50 per hour greater than a starting worker when I had been there for about 2 years and been a manager for about 4 months. I heard that corporate franchises had much more competitive wages.
