Pros

You get good pay, and good hours. They make sure you get the hours for the pay you have been promised. It is fast-paced and busy, but mid-day is pretty laid back..enough so that you can recoupe for the evening rush. If you want good money and lots of hours, go for it!

Cons

You are at their disposal no matter what kind of superb job you can do. I lost both of my parents and asked my manager to work with me on some hours for their funerals, and it was not so. I was treated as though it didnt matter and the chinese foodebing served was all that mattered. They are very strict, and way too trusting for such easy disposal of you as well.
