Pros

Simple Work Easy to get in You can be a driver if you want to You get one free sandwhich Room to move up, if fast food is your thing You like hard work

Cons

They treat their employees as disposable. They advertise that they are "looking for rockstars," but what they really want is highly disciplined wage slaves. For all of the positive press that they get, they were a lousy company to work for

Pros

Decent pay and bonuses Potential for a laid back environment Very clean store

Cons

Current GM is terrible with the schedule, constant last minute changes with little to no notice of said changes. Also no notice when a new schedule was out. GM will blame the person for not seeing last minute changes and has penalized people in the past for it. GM flirts with most women that come into the store, even though he has a wife and kids. The drive through headsets will damage your hearing, as there isn't any audio cut off, so people can start cars in your ear at full volume. Grease trap gets cleaned every sunday and makes the entire store smell like sewage New owners are getting rid of PTO for any management employees Part time only and no benefits even as a manager other than a small bonus Employees and management refuse to wear beard nets even when clearly unsanitary Very drama filled environment
