Pros

you can meet people that are fun to be around.

Cons

The moral in the whole company has gone completly down hill. It started off as a job that you could have fun at to a place that was cut throat for hours. One week you would have enough hours to pay your bills, and the next second you end up with just enough to fill up your tank to get back to work. The breaks between each shift was s long that you were basically spending all your time at work or waiting to get to work. Raises were barely even given and if you recieved them they were so small that you didnt know whether to laugh or cry. If you were favored, then you got the bigger raises, and promoted quicker. The people who were actully all about Potbelly ended up leaving, and wasting many years of their lives on broken promises made by this ever growing greedy company. It takes away any chance at a social life, and if you ask for a day off, you can forget about getting more hours. This company is so consumed with making money that they would rather no one really work to save on labor. Quarterly bonuses have gotten so small that there is no point in getting them, and promises of prizes for winning competitions are just ploys to get you to sell more.
