Pros

The food is great, I ate so much while working here that I gained weight. Their limited/seasonal chicken is especially the best on their menu (I believe right now it's their Honey Chicken). Employees get discounts on their food, which is the main reason why I ate there so much. You have the potential to bond with your coworkers over shared struggles. You can wear blue denim jeans as part of your uniform.

Cons

If your store has bad management (or your manager just hates you), or your work environment is toxic/hostile, you will have a horrible time at your place of work. Working grill is the most stressful out of all of the crew positions. Depending on how high-volume your store is, expect busy, sometimes stressful shifts. Benefits are mediocre. There isn't much room for advancement.

Pros

Learning and growing to cultivate your own career path into a competent General Manager. The hours are longer than regular but the position is labeled as salary hourly with a minimum of 50 hours per week which guarantees 10 hours if overtime per week.

Cons

The long hours can be tiring and the expectations are less than or equivalent to that of a General Manager and depending who your boss is dependent on what you learn and how you can grow.
