Pros

Free meals and flexible working hours

Cons

Managers don’t care about the team, especially during busy hours. They stay in the back room chatting instead of helping out on the floor. · Hard work goes unnoticed and unappreciated. · If any mistake happens, they’re quick to blame crew members, even though they make the same mistakes themselves.
