Pros

Great pay for a job relatively easy to learn without any previous experience. Amazing free food. Flexible schedule based on manager.

Cons

Mundane work, depressing work place, poor work life balance as they keep you working non stop and will overwork you when they can.

Cons

No work life balance Lots of hours (anywhere from 50 to 80 per week) No support from upper management, mostly just barking orders and expectations Everything above depends on management Upper management past General Manager are controlling and manipulative The ideals and environment are very far from what they strive for
