Pros

There are no pros to working here. The free food is cooked in grease and not worth eating.

Cons

This was the worse job ever. Employees constantly fighting between each other, rude to customers. Upper management always undermining the managers (telling employees it is fine to eat during work hours, or use cell phone on the floor, etc) so they would not need to fill in if employees called. No home life at all, you work about 70 hours a week, 6 days a week and always on call, not assist. manager or shift leaders.

Dirty Stressful Management doesn't care Crazy back to back shifts with 10 hours in between on weekends. Working 2PM-9PM friday, then 7AM-2PM saturday Very little raises Revolving door of co-workers
