Pros

Very easy, can be fun depending on the work environment.

Cons

The work is very repetitive. The quality of the employees is hit or miss, they either want to be there or they don't, and yet they get paid the same. There is no incentive to work harder or better because if the franchise owner is cheap and isn't involved in the business enough to know who works hard and who doesn't and therefore does not give those people that deserve to be paid what they should get. A lot of intentional pay check shorting that you have to hassle with correcting.

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”
