Pros

Nice people and usually nice customers make a great work place. Flexible hours allow easy wprk for students.

Cons

Terrible pay and a clear racial bias prevents people from moving up. You do not feel valued as a worker. High turnover means you will be spending time baby sitting newbies. Poor benefits like 10% off feel like a joke.
