Pros

It really is satisfying to see how happy, and thrilled some customers are, especially when they order hot doughnuts!

Cons

Terrible role management, bad staffing, rude employees. Sometimes you're all alone on drive-thru when you're expected to prepare the order, cash out the customer, whilst paying attention to the belt and customers up at the front.

Pros

nice people to work with, and of course, doughnuts

Cons

extremely understaffed and leadership refuses to backfill while increasing expectations of shrinking teams. long-term, this is not sustainable and people will continue to leave. internal data is a mess, no confidence in outputs and requires a ton of manual calculation
