Pros

My experience was always very upbeat because we had one of the top stores in the district. Business was always booming so it was seldom quiet.

Cons

There was little room to grow or learn different skills. I was a sandwich artist but I would have liked to have been given the opportunity to work more with the management in doing some other tasks such as prepping items for baking, book work, inventory, etc.

Pros

When I worked for the original owner I had a great experience, however when he sold the store to a company that owned several Subways in the MA, NY and VT area it was completely different. Initially we were paid well, everyone worked hard and employee morale was high. After the other company took over they began to hire people who didn't show up for shifts and didn't do their job when they did. They actually refused to hire me back on school breaks, as they had promised since I worked there for over three years, because they didn't want to pay me $8.75 an hour. Overall it was an easy job to get me through high school but I don't think I'd go back. Especially if it was this unnamed company.

Cons

Starting wage at or near minimum wage, very little room for raises or advancement in the company.
