Pros

Floating Holidays and Health Benefits. Flexible hours and ample sick time. Cafeterias offer good food. Fun atmosphere to work some of the time. Great people to make friends with.

Cons

Management in 401k is a popularity contest. Many managers were hired based on good looks or based on friendships. Incompetent people hired as supervisors. Poor employee development. Low, low pay even after raises and promotions. Hard to make 50k even after 5 years of hard work, You honestly could make more as a fast food manager.
