Pros

A little money in your pocket. Most managers were fairly laid back.

Cons

Most everything. You smell terrible after working a shift. You're greasy after working. You stand on your feet all day. I've seen some people post here that they get free meals, and that's only the case if you're a manager. Regular employees are supposed to pay for everything... yet they give out a free meal every day to the lady who sells newspapers on the street corner every morning. You're paid the very least they can get away with paying you. No opportunities for raises. Our District Manager keeps telling us to cut certain jobs, so slowly we're having to do more work than we should be (for example, cutting down from having 1 buffet worker and 1 prep person, to 1 prep person who has to juggle the buffet and all the prep work. Because of this, the buffet is always understocked and messy.)(Another example, we've gone from having 2 cooks every shift, one for original, one for crispy and grilled, to having 1 cook to manage all of that, as well as daily cleaning.) The majority of my coworkers are lazy, so I've ended up doing my job as well as their's (it's not fun to take orders, make drinks, cash out orders, and prepare orders on drive thru during a dinner rush). Rude, entitled customers who think it's okay to curse and scream at minimum wage workers for menial things.
