Pros

I get a decent amount of hours. It took me six months to prove to my superiors I was worthy of working 25 hours a week, but I did it.

Cons

Terrible pay, with no negotiations for raises; you get paid more only if the company has been doing well lately, and if your higher ups like you enough to give you an evaluation. Has more rules (many of which are literally the stupidest things you've ever heard of) than ANY place I've ever worked, and yes, you will get written up for breaking them - even if no one told you said rules existed. (Example: I got sick while I was at work. I did not ask to go home, my boss told me I had to go home. I got written up for "missing too much work" because missing this one day amounted to over 25% of my shifts for that week. Yeah. Because that makes sense.) I was physically abused by my manager and they say they're going to do something about it but haven't yet. They will make you travel but refuse to pay for any more than 40 miles' worth of gas, thus forcing you to pay to go to their stupid seminars.

Pros

Co-workers, 10% employee discount, up to four dollars comped food while working

Cons

Bad upper management (unit directors), unprofessional, no hours, can't afford any combo with comped meal. Only up to 29 hours max but it is unscheduled so you can never make plans on days off or sleep in if you need the hours. Expect closer to 13-20 hours a week.

Pros

You get your paycheck on a weekly basis. I always calculated my hours vs. my checks, and they were always perfect. Also, the regulars are very nice. My hiring manager was extremely diligent in training & doing her job.

Cons

Customers had plenty of attitude to pile onto the attitudes of the managers who felt they were "special" because of their title. Half of the lower level managers were rude & disrespectful. When it came time to be evaluated in order to consider my raise, my Mgr. was too lazy to do so. He sat in the office complaining about how times weren't being kept down, yet seldom left his office in order to help when help was needed. The kitchen was not as clean as it should have been. I did not receive breaks as often as I should have. Managers were unprofessional. I would never work for this place again.
