Pros

Starting pay slightly above minimum wage, most employees were kind, and the vibe was generally laid back. Free meal on most shifts which would have been nice had the employees not had a history of getting stomach issues. No ones stayed long enough to know for sure whether or not upward mobility was a serious possibility.

Cons

Business value that the push on all employees was pretty much fabricated, their whole image is a bit of a facade. Management at my particular store was terrible at assigning sufficient numbers for the amount of work, managers would leave early

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.
