CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

starting pay is good, and they do allow overtime if you are interested

Cons

They sit in the office and watch on cameras. There is no grace. After your initial 3 day training, you will be written up for any mistake you make.

Great pay and benefits, but very strict policies

Food service associate

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Exceptional pay for no experience needed, however you will definetly be working for it. Great benefits, overall honest work that gives you good compensation. Seems easy to move up and build a career in management, you will have to go train other stores for this oppurtunity.

Cons

They are strict about many things such as call outs and will write you up due to general life circumstances. Work isn't entirely difficult but can become exhausting, it really just depends where they decide to put you for the day. Busier season = more pay but more work (10 hour shifts) so thats just up for preference.
