Pros

I loved the standards that are expected to be met at JJ’s. They truly do have high standards when it comes to ingredients, cleanliness, speed, accuracy and quality.

Cons

The pay Definitely needs to be higher - for all employee’s but especially for managers. Managers at Jimmy John’s do A Lot. Owners need to see and respect that. Hours were long. (we were on/by the University of Alabama campus - so hours were basically 24/7) Also, getting more than 2 days off in a row was basically impossible.

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.
