Pros

Most of your coworkers. 30 minute breaks and free meals. Can schedule days off in advance.

Cons

Management will often stress you out and expect alot from you. You're required to do 130% at all times and management will play favorites. Expect ALOT of phone calls from co-workers with a sob story of how they need you to work for them because scheduling is a joke. There's alot of pressure to get good scores on secret shopper evaluations. Be prepared to pick up the slack of incompetent co-workers.
