Pros

Managers were always kind and understanding.

Cons

Of money is missing from the register, you have to pay part of it, so coworkers would all the time do this type of scam where say 20 is missing from register so you have to pay 10 of it, losing money from tips and they apparently keep the other 10. I could never prove it even though they were the only other one with access to register. I say If you work register anywhere not just here, keep the key on you at all times. Makes me angry just thinking about that person.
