      Great pay, lazy staff, corporate BS.

      Pros

      The pay was awesome, $6.00/hr plus tips (for a driver). I'd sometimes bring home close to $200 in a 12-hour shift (if you're fast). It's nice to be out by yourself driving, and you really get to know your delivery area.

      Cons

      Hours are sometimes ridiculous with little to no break. Corporate is too strict, you absolutely cannot call in sick and they're even skeptical about medical emergencies. You pretty much only get one warning and then you're fired. No recognition for doing a good job, too much pressure to drive faster, get to destinations quicker. Lazy staff somehow get away with standing around, management is a joke- strict on employees but not on themselves.

      Pros

      free food, always able to get food when I wanted it. Laid back, brainless job

      Cons

      not enough hours they hire too many employees and each work little hours a week. You're checks are tiny. You're always on your feet, and you don't get a break. brainless job, no opps to grow with the co.

      Jimmy Johns in a nutshell

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good base culture, good business model, above average pay.

      Cons

      Declining culture (Sold to Inspire Brands in 2019), niche market, declining customer base, brand model fluctuates (used to only sell sandwiches, and that's what we were known for, but we've added wraps, and now hot sandwiches in March 2025, which adds time to our order fulfillment, taking away from the company slogan "freaky fast")
