Pros

Pay, vacation, benefits. Turnover is so high that even bad employees with okay attendance have incredible job security.

Cons

Incredibly high turnover. People will no-call/no-show 3 shifts a week without a write-up but the minute a dependable full timer slips up it's the end of the world. In the kitchen people will often have to cover extra stations to make up for absent employees without any extra pay. Once in a while is understandable but this has been going on day after day almost 2 years now. Things like casual racism and sexual harassment are brushed off by management and these people are even given more opportunities. They will have their minimum wage teenagers cleaning feces without any sort of proper santiation procedures. The list goes on.... It's a store with 1000 managers all fighting for the smallest bit of power and it manifests in some pretty interesting behavior. The most common being completely abandoning any sense of decency to please the boss and bottom line.

Pros

Friendliness- people that work there are friendly and so are the customers most of the time. Clean environment Always something to do Inside working environment, so when it’s too hot or cold outside your just fine inside.

Cons

Micro management - The managers day they do not micro manage but they do. Negative talk behind people’s back tends to happen a lot, and I don’t think that’s a positive thing to have going on in any work environment.
