Pros

When I was there, we had 50% off food during and shortly before our shift and 20% off the rest of the time (didn't apply to family/ friends, just us). Management and the supervisor were friendly yet no-nonsense. They really appreciated flexibility in performing a variety of roles but put you where you did best most of the time. Our team was great and almost all of the customers/ guests were respectful and kind.

Cons

Any issues were minor, stuff like the vacuum cleaner taking a while to replace/ fix, availability of hours during downtime. Wasn't an issue until I got done school.
