Pros

Easy work compared to other kitchen jobs.

Cons

Filthy kitchen with no backbone from management to try and upkeep the store cleaned. Management will use scheduling asa tool of power, if you're underperforming instead of having a conversation on how to improve, I've seen my colleagues hours be cut on a weekly basis. On your average shift you probably won't receive your legally mandated 15 minute break but if you complain about it you aren't a "team player"

Pros

Good People Healthy Food Decent pay for the area

Cons

Tokyo Joes is more focused on flattering a few select corporate employees, than developing the company as a whole. If you aren't long-friends with corporate employees from dozens of miles away, you will neither move up, or be employed on a long term basis in this company.
