Pros

i worked with nice people, people who worked harder got more hours and people would chip in and help eachother (i worked in the back but i helped up front during rush hour sometimes, and sometimes my coworkers would come help me) and i got a free meal for working a full shift

Cons

the night shift doesnt have a lot of people, and big rushes can happen.
