Pros

Management Flexibility on hours Great first job The skills you learn will help you for the rest of your life.

Cons

To work in this environment you have to be able to work well with people who consistently complain about their job. This is a minimum wage job and it requires a lot of work, but any competent person can do well.

Pros

Opportunities for advancement exist and if you are going to manage in quick service restaurants, Subway is a good choice. Stores are cleaner due to their being no fried foods and most do not have drive-thru service allowing you to focus on the customer experience inside the restaurant.

Cons

Management support can be inadequate depending on the ownership. Some owners do not have assistant managers in place at all, placing responsibility on the manager for all shifts. Pay and benefits are not as good as McDonalds.
