Jimmy John's reviews

You get your schedule for the next week on Saturday and you have to find a replacement if you can't work a shift. Even if you know weeks in advance you won't be available you still have to find your own sub. This is a pain when you are just starting and don't know anybody. Also annoying that it can take a good hour or two to make calls/texts. Why they can't make the schedule a week in advance is beyond me. Jimmy Johns is about "freaky fast" delivery and therefore there are 4-5 drivers during lunchtime and you don't get as many deliveries as other restaurants. Tips pretty much cover gas unless you have a very efficient car or you get lucky with large orders.

Incredibly long hours, it doesn't give you much time to pursue personal goals. High burnout rate, the only people who've worked at the company over 5 years are the owner and the Director of Operations. Bonuses are generally on the low end unless you've got a high performing store like the Manhattan one. Once you achieve GM status, your likelihood of getting promoted is incredibly low unless you have a personal connection to Brane. The company sometimes sets unreasonable goals in order to make it near impossible to achieve your bonus.
