Pros

Starts $12hr and 50% food

Cons

So ive worked their for one month, started off getting harrassed by one guy and management did nothing! They proceded to cut my hours and eventually fire me without saying anything to me! Ive asked for a letter of seperation, nothing. This is coming from a person who was allways on time to work and stayed late if needed.

Pros

I’ve made some great coworker friends and met some great people, Some of the customers are a blessing to meet and I love to hear when I have been a blessing to a customer as well!

Cons

While it is a fun job, it is highly stressful at times. It is an easy job, yet you have to be good at multitasking and keeping your composure because you have to keep great customer service. We are a lower volume store, so often times we have to work with a limited crew and that can add some pressure. Because it is a highly stressful job, the turnover rate is high, which means that some great people end up leaving.
