Pros

- Managers and shift supervisors at my store seem to genuinely care about employees - Surprisingly good pay (got 18.50 as 18 year old) - Work not too full-on except during peak hours (lunch/3pm when all the schoolkids come) - The team members in my store were all super nice and we became close outside of work so it was a really relaxed environment - 10% discount at all stores, 50% discount during a shift - Got to take free food home if you closed - Hours not too bad at a food court store: latest finish is usually 6pm and earliest start for team member is 10am - Training is paid (most of it anyway, had to finish up some at home but only took 30mins) - They stick to rostered hours quite well, never had to stay back past my shift and always started on time

Cons

- It's rare to get a shift on weekends if you are 18+ bcos the schoolkids can work = can really on work on weekdays which means not much shifts if you have uni/other commitments - Work can get boring at times - Not enough opportunities to be trained on other stations + no rotation of work (I've only worked on the register, and people cooking have not worked at the front for a long time)

Pros

It got to be fun to see how fast we could get on the drive thru, we ended up being the fastest team in our district! My manager was really great at getting us to have fun as a team, and to leave our bs about working fast food at the door.

Cons

Basic service industry stuff. Nothing extraordinary.
