Pros

close, convenient, good with working with schedules

Cons

They try to make you work too hard for too little money. Good at pointing out the bad, and not at recognizing good performance and good leadership abilities.

Pros

It can be a paycheck, although definitely track your hours

Cons

The blind leading the blind. Customers should come behind the counter for a day and see what it is like then the complaints will go way down garanteed.

Pros

Easy summer job, pay is what you'd expect. They're cool with you taking a break every once in a while, too, so it's pretty laid back. And, if your manager is awesome, you can have some free food.

Cons

Customers can be very rude. Everyone seems to assume you're some high school drop-out, and so they can be very condescending. Also, drive-thrus tend to have microphones in dire need of replacement. You'll occasionally have that one coworker who just doesn't give a rat's and messes up the entire service process.
