Pros

Subway is a healthy working environment and being an employee means that you don't have to work in a hot temperature area as you would in other fast food restaurants and it's a very friendly and cooperative working environment

Cons

Only up to three people working during a shift period. When it is only two people working during a shift while business gets very busy with multiple incoming customers it can feel a little hectic but focus, hardwork, and hospitality achieves a successful outcome
