Pros

- Free lunch - Relatively easy

Cons

- Signed up for part time, but was worked 20-25 hours a week and was criticized for requesting less hours (I was in full time school at the time) - Schedule wouldn't be released until the day before the next work week - Unclear communication - Management refused to let me take sick days (leading to me being forced to quit when I had to go to the hospital and they wouldn't listen) - Rude and lazy coworkers - Criticized for not picking up shifts when only given an hour's notice

Pros

Easy for someone starting out, not difficult. Management was ok.

Cons

Some employees didn't do the same amount of work. Some difficult customers, just gotta have a thick skin and kill them with kindness. You smell like a sandwich all the time which was kind of terrible.

Pros

None but maybe the free sandwich.

Cons

Literally all of them. Mainly you spend all of your shift having the customers get mad at you because your not putting enough veggies on their sandwiches. Literally it's 3 pieces of every veggie you want. The employees get in trouble when food is costing too much. It's ridiculous. Oh and the pay, not worth all the work and trouble with customers.
