Pros

Follow strict guidelines for running the restaurant, which keeps it VERY clean at all times, yet still a laid back atmosphere and fun place to work. the managers were great, they always knew what they were doing and made sure each employee knew what he/she was to do. Never any confusion, always fair. The best part about working there was the people i worked with, including the managers. I actually looked forward to work each day because the people i worked for/with were decent and fair at all times. I would recommend this job to anyone, and I am considering going back soon.

Cons

My only wish while I worked there was that I be allowed to miss a day without having found someone to substitute for me in advance. This would have been nice in case I suddenly became sick or something urgent came up and I didn't have time to find a sub. Luckily this was not an issue for me, but I could see that happening in the future.

Pros

Good pay, if there aren't too many drivers, and you're at a good place for lunch, you can expect to make around $50 in tips per day or more, and get reimbursed for mileage. The people there can be hit or miss, some people can be very fun to work with and responsible.

Cons

The upper management can be lead with too many sensitive women, who don't know how to diagnose situations properly, and take the side of the immature employees who get offended way too easily. The co-workers can be very young and irresponsible, but this is par for the course for food places if you don't have strong leadership.
