      Cons

      suppressing constant under staffing tons of store visit never ending cleaning support others store while your own store is suffering no work/life balance ( the higher u go , the less time get for yourself) No bonus when you don't promote managers min 48+hrs/week ( Salaries paid --> max pay rate $16/hr .. if you work over 48hrs/ week) sometimes you work over 80 hrs/week ($11/hr) (</ cooks pay) clean the drive way (ZERO Gum allowed)

      Pros

      The managers care about where you want to get in the company and will try and work with you on your areas of opportunity in order to get you to that level.

      Cons

      Like any minimum wage job, the stresses of dealing with customers and the amount of responsibility they give you can be too much sometimes.

      Pros

      Starting pay is nice. You always get the amount of hours you ask for (or in my case, much more). There is a lot of chances to get raises and move up if you want.

      Cons

      Long shifts (sometimes 10 hours or more) You will need to ask around to make sure you know certain information (most managers won't tell you anything) You don't really get trained. You're expected to catch on and learn from everyone else. You will get reprimanded for your mistakes, even though you don't know what are doing necessarily.
