      Pros

      People! If you have good upper management they are supportive and will help you. You learn a lot about running a business. There is room to move up and the higher you go the better the pay.

      Cons

      You are in charge of working any shift you cannot find coverage for. Your employees aren't always the best people depending on your area. You're not off on your days off because staff will still call you. It's all about numbers. You are the only manager for the 24 hour business so everything is on you when it comes to fixing your numbers.

      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.
