Pros

Not a difficult job. Customers are generally nice and it can be a fun place to work at times.

Cons

Management did not create a positive work environment. Almost every employee I worked with hated their job, which takes a huge toll on morale.

Pros

Overall they were a decent company to work for. Great food, good teamwork and friendly service. Some employees could have been closer screened and held accountable regarding how they represent the company by the way they carry themselves. Some of the managers also definitely could have been screened closer as well as more on the professional role model and authority figure end of things rather than feeling as a fellow casual "cool person" role.

Cons

Illicit drug use of employees. High school employees being my fellow workers required to call around amongst to get shifts covered or else missing wasnt allowed yet calling around consisted always of "oh im busy" due to football game plans or party plans while im legitimately ill with a flu running into nothing but no coverage for shifts and being pressured by management not to "leave them hanging" and that my "shift wont cover itself."
