Pros
The staff there are amazing, no problems whatsoever. If you wish to work there as a student, they are very welcoming and always there to help you. I totally recommend working here!!
Cons
There are no cons to working here, except that the work load may seem a lot at first, but gradually, you start to get used to it, and then it's basically a breeze from there!
Advice to Management
Great job, I enjoyed working there, and I would love to come back when I have completed my education.

Can be open till late so you might have to do the late shifts or if you are young work a some weekends.
