Pros

It's a company you can really stand behind. It has great, high-quality food, crew training that is second to none, a fun and supportive work environment, crew and management that is like a family, and a culture and message that truly cares about it's crew and community. It's been two years since I left, and I am still promoting how wonderful of a place it is.

Cons

If you are going to school while working, you may have a harder time getting promoted. I was working my way through college, and was putting my degree and education first, so I was only available to work 25 hours a week. During the years I worked there, I would receive my bi-yearly raises, but was never cross-trained despite my repeated asking. There were crew members that had been there less, but who had more open schedules. I found that they were getting cross-trained and promoted to shift captains within the first four to six months. I would try to find out what I could and needed to do in order to be eligible, but was only ever told that they were surprised I wasn't already a shift captain, but that they were reluctant to remove me from the front counter - where they said I shined. They kept pushing the training off until X-variable or Y-variable occurred, but it never happened before I graduated.

Pros

Really committed to caring about the workers, amazingly fun to work there. Huge crew parties, closed for major holidays. Half-price food. Low drama!

Cons

Our location suffers a major business hit when college is out, so hours get waaaay cut for the first few weeks of summer. A few manager-crew conflicts, as can be expected anywhere. Our location (the only franchise) does not yet offer insurance/benefits.

Pros

Flexible schedule. Opportunities for career advancement. Major holidays off, 6 month evaluations, health insurance offered for part time employees as well as full time. family oriented company activities. Fun working atmosphere.

Cons

As with any job this one is not perfect but close to it. I did deal with one manager that was really unprofessional and got too emotionally involved with her employees. Other than that if you dont like working with really young people this may not be the career for you. As for my experience at times I got annoyed listening to teenage conversations but there are often times a good mix of young and old employees. I worked here for almost five years and did not get an opportunity to advance into management until i transferred to another store and worked one year. I have heard of individuals getting promoted within 6 months. I believe that there is a small margin of bias when it comes to certain locations.
