Pros

Easy to move up through the company. Good for a first time job or a teenager. Discounts on the sandwiches.

Cons

No clearly defined break times. Upper management (Area Managers and higher) can be really anal about insignificant things. Drivers don't get any real compensation for running their cars in the ground for the company. The scheduling can be disorganized depending on who the general manager is.

Pros

Salary, security, free sandwich You cannot beat getting a salary every week as well as opportunity for bonuses monthly. You cannot actually get fired unless you screw up really bad. They will just yell at you and make you feel worthless, then you continue slaving away.

Cons

The actual hourly pay is less than minimum wage for the salary you get compared to how many hours you work. You will never see your family
