Pros

Excellent benefits, generally competent co-workers, respectful & professional work environment (particularly for foodservice). Inevitably, you get bad apples as customers & co-workers who make the experience less palatable, but if you enjoy working fast, interacting with loads of (mostly) smart people, & staying focused, this is a good place for you.

Cons

There are always going to be the boneheads (customers or co-workers) who make life more difficult than it should be. One bad co-worker on a shift & your workload increases significantly. The hours can be tough.

Pros

Only sched for 40 hours a week Great insurance Free Coffee Discounts Potential for Growth

Cons

Only 8 hours (if you are lucky) of admin time Usually 50+ hour weeks DM's are a bunch of playful children that at times have no clue If you get a great DM, your life is Golden. Get a store with lots of issues and a DM that is both incompetent and childish, you are going to have a real hard time. If they want you gone, they WILL find a way very easily. You can only do so much with the tight staffing.
