Pros

The meals are delicious. Enjoyable shifts when they get your hours right and the managers arent there..

Cons

Managers not respecting their coworkers or their coworkers confidentiality. Managers not teaching properly, coworkers and managers teaching new employees 5 different ways to do one job. Lack of positive influence and a helping hand when a person is having trouble. Very negative energy from many of the employees AND managers. Rarely giving correct hours..

Pros

Solid pay for the industry Okay benefits Employee stock purchase plan Pretty consistent hours The actual work is difficult, but fun after you get good at it. Upward momentum is difficult, but the pay scales very well if you work your way up into management. Prepare for intense work if you do though.

Cons

They hire everyone, and your team will make or break your experience. Genuine safety concerns on 3rd shift. You need to be prepared for people to act out. Senior management only have operation management skills. They are not good "people" managers at all. Only "number" managers.
