Pros

Working with a small-town franchisee, I got to learn important aspects of business ownership. Working with customers face-to-face is a great experience which can open many doors in a plethora of jobs with huge advancement opportunities.

Cons

As an entry-level job, one shouldn't expect pay rates much over minimum wage. If you aren't good with people, this is not the job for you. Also, it is food service. many people aren't cut for the strict requirements and stresses involved.

Pros

i liked the free food and the delight of making each customer feel special and like they received good healthy value for their meal.

Cons

the bosses were snappy and the coworkers were all low skilled, who didnt enjoy being scheduled or doing work.

A humiliating experience

Pros

There are certainly worse food service jobs to be worked, but not many. Minimum wage is manageable, as long as you get the hours necessary (which you likely won't),

Cons

Few hours for minimum wage, and often unsanitary food prep conditions. The franchise owner was far more interested in making a quick buck than running a decently cleaned establishment.
