Pros

If you like to stay busy this is the place for you. Managers work along side of the team to deliver results. There is never a dull moment between the work, terrific employees, and regular customers. Free meals. Good compensation depending on franchisee.

Cons

KFC corp runs specials to increase sales with no interest in profitability. Franchisees are in the business to make money. Often times this puts a GM in the crossfire. However upper management often understands this balancing act and is sympathetic.
