Pros

Friendly environment. Great co workers who provide great team work. And a management who continues to teach you new skills.

Cons

Fast pace. Extremely busy and loud. Get called in a lot when not on the schedule. And upset customers who tend to take it out on the workers, because the store is constantly busy and the food doesn't come out in .3 seconds.
