Pros

3 paid vacations a year Stock benefits Insurance benefits Know your schedule for the whole year

Cons

Limited weekends off, about 6-8 off a year Working EVERY Holiday Store managers are resonsible for everything involved at the unit. Main cook during your shift. Have to handle all issues while cooking and getting orders out as quickly as possible. Dealing with hourly associates and there reasons for not wanting to come to work or not showing up. Possible working double shifts if somebody doesn't show up. Always on call. Even when your off your still on call and trust your phone will ring.

Pros

Solid pay for the industry Okay benefits Employee stock purchase plan Pretty consistent hours The actual work is difficult, but fun after you get good at it. Upward momentum is difficult, but the pay scales very well if you work your way up into management. Prepare for intense work if you do though.

Cons

They hire everyone, and your team will make or break your experience. Genuine safety concerns on 3rd shift. You need to be prepared for people to act out. Senior management only have operation management skills. They are not good "people" managers at all. Only "number" managers.
