Pros

Free QT doctor. Good benefits, good retirement.

Cons

Full-time positions have you working at least 46 hours a week. Hours are odd and difficult to adjust to. QT never closes, so you'll be there on holidays too. Family events and get-togethers will become a distant memory because you'll be sleeping to work the overnight, your vacation wasn't approved, or you were called-in because there is never enough coverage. Promotions are dangled in front of you like a carrot on a stick. Something you'll endlessly work towards but seldomly ever reach. You'll have to wait several months on a promotion list before chosen, unless 1) someone in the office likes you 2)You'd help fill-out their diversity-in-management goals 3)you somehow manage to have great performance scores while being understaffed and placed under a tremendous workload The yearly Hawaii trip drawings are rigged. Everyone who gets picked each year has either gone before, or is someone whom the supervisors would want to hangout with for a week in Hawaii. Customers are always right and so are their customer comment submissions. Management sides with customers almost always on customer complaints and you will get reprimanded. QT's outdated surveys from the 1990's suggest that people seem more trustworthy if they do not have facial hair. If you are a man, you are only allowed to have a mustache. That's messed up

Pros

For part-time flexible hours and if you're a student you can get tuition reimbursement (If you work +13 hours and payed for your tuition). Also, good bounce as you work more hours. And once you stay long enough you can get health insurance and vacation days paid (you can get these benefits has a full time, but if you're and in high school and going to college after this would be better to keep flexible hours and later on get the perks),

Cons

At first, they give you a lot of information and even as you work with the company, there will be new things to learn. Bad thing about that is that store managers can get mad because other managers haven't explained to the clerks. So, it can be frustrating, this job is also a lot of talking so if your shy then that would be a problem.
