Pros

- You get to work for an iconic brand - Looks great on resumes - The passion for the brand is continuous when you first start

Cons

- The franchisees are a nightmare to work with, lots of opinions but no clear understanding of what it takes to turn the business around - Parent company tried to fill leadership team with people who were successful globally, those people ran the U.S. business into the ground - The parent company constantly compares KFC US to Taco Bell, despite the different challenges - No longer offering remote work
