Pros

Great food, free meal when working and 50% off when not. Fast paced makes time go by quickly Paid break Great product

Cons

Work with a general manager and apprentice that spend 3/4s of their time in the office taking care of "paperwork" when other managers let you know there can't be possibly hours and hours of paperwork to do. Very hypocritical as they harp on you if you get on your phone or use the restroom for a minute if any customer is in line but will do the same.

Pros

Learning and growing to cultivate your own career path into a competent General Manager. The hours are longer than regular but the position is labeled as salary hourly with a minimum of 50 hours per week which guarantees 10 hours if overtime per week.

Cons

The long hours can be tiring and the expectations are less than or equivalent to that of a General Manager and depending who your boss is dependent on what you learn and how you can grow.
