Pros

Gain very great experience Good hours Gain knowledge of rush hours and a great beginner job

Cons

Mangers can be mean Asian people. Cooks get annoyed when you call out food. Don't get your tens, get left by yourself on drive thru which becomes annoying. Don't get benefits unless you're over 21.
