Pros

Had nice co-workers Good starter Job Depends on your store they will work with your schedule Once you get used to the first 3 months the job is actually pretty easy and depending on your location and the time you work, the job is actually not that stressful and chill but this is not always the case (Specifically evening to night shifts or overnights are the most calm however it is usually busy all the time) Mornings are hectic especially when transitioning to Mornings breakfast to afternoon

Cons

Management Favoritism (not all managers and stores are like this and the ones I worked with were very nice and funny but I noticed some managers favorited others more than other people and had let them get away with more versus if a different employee had done the same action they would get punished or a write up) Rushed training threw you in and your expected to know everything Very stressful Not treated well if you are new Always was understaff so it was even more stressful as you would have to perform 2 duties at once and if you cant perform them you would get yelled at ( not all stores are like this) If you work in the kitchen you will always smell like food when you get home

Pros

In-store management was great, very nice and fun to work with, and was very accommodating when needed.

Cons

I was supposed to be on the official schedule after one week of working, but it took three months to be placed on the schedule, so every day I had to message the store manager to ask if I was needed to work. Once I was on the schedule, I hurt myself outside of work and had to take a day off to go to the doctor (i got someone to cover my shift), After that, I was not on the schedule anymore. I messaged the store manager, the other managers, and the scheduling manager, and after 2 months, I still wasn't on the schedule. I asked the Store manager again, and she said it was my fault I wasn't on the schedule despite the fact that I was messaging everyone I could. I then put my two weeks in because she refused to let me work.
