Pros

- easy money - not a hard job - free sandwich and drink when you work every shift -have a lot of down time to sit around and do nothing

Cons

-they fire you and wont give you a chance to explain. I had a family emergency and I couldnt make it into work that day. I tried to call and text both manager and assistant and neither of them replied. When i got to work the next day, my name was scratched out and i wasnt on the upcoming schedule. They had said that I was fired because i was a NCNS and wouldnt listen to me as i explained AND SHOWED them the messages i sent and the call logs where i called them both. Sucks, but its their loss. I was a great worker

Pros

Some customers are alright. Discounts or free food depending on company/franchise rules.

Cons

On your feet all day, you can get very tired. I have legs like a horse and still get tired from standing on my feet all day. Very busy too. If understaffed, will NOT be fun and will be very frustrating. One person can slow the entire line down. While that doesn't seem bad, wait until rush hour. Some people really want the bang for their buck. If they ask for everything, or extra (insert random veggie here) it can be difficult to fold/wrap sandwiches. Certain customers will complain if the sandwich does not look good because of this.
