Pros

Card only so no cash handling, good atmosphere, management want this to be a fun company with a good public image so you get to have a lot of genuinely great interactions with customers (rewarding them with free donuts and so on for their special occasions).

Cons

Standard short staffing issues that most companies have nowadays.
