Pros

The food was pretty good Some managers were cool with you eating whatever you wanted You learn to make some kicking burritos

Cons

The pay was not worth it. I worked in a not-so-safe part of LA. Almost got shot over a Chicken tostada. Nothing to do with the company, just the situation I was in. Peak hours were brutal, and customers would be upset you haven't made their food while there's an insane line going around the store. They should hire more cashiers and not understaff shifts.
