Pros

Have a footlong plus beverage for lunch so need not worry about one time meal.

Cons

Beware of subway owners who ask you to do everything in the store. Dont join those. They will pay you less compared to how much they could have paid to couple people doing the same thing you're doing by yourself. You gotta do every single duty for over 8 hours and during rush hours like lunch or dinner, you will wish you could die, that's the level of stress. Over a 100 subs in 2 hours.

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”
