Pros

Easy to transfer to another location since it's such a large franchise. Usually you get a free 6 inch sandwich for a long shift

Cons

My Subway was terrible to work for. No raises no matter what. 9 hour shifts with no break. The only break was to use the bathroom. We were always understaffed and worked to death for minimal pay. The owner didn't care at all about the employees so almost everyone hated their job.

Pros

Literally nothing was good about working for subway

Cons

-you get to see how unsanitary and not real the food is -management is always a nightmare with franchise establishments -stressful environment with a constant expectation to run the full store alone -scheduling is inconsistent and management always will overwork and underpay -attempts to wage garnish at every turn asking you to clock out and finish tasks before leaving or taking tips from card transactions if you “make a mistake”
