Pros

The food tastes good. The restaurant is very VERY clean. I knew I was serving something that I would be okay with eating.

Cons

Everyone was super mean to me when I first started working there. Near the end, everyone was very nice to me, but it was like they were expecting me to quit right away and when I didn't, they made an effort to be kind. The general manager is incredibly inexperienced. The hours are long, the pay is not nearly enough to compensate for all the health issues you will have later in life from chronic illness you will attain while working there. They also have very unrealistic expectations for what needs to be done and the time frame by which it must be completed. I also saw a lot of racism. During my time there, 4 people were fired. All 4 were people of color. All of the management was white, even though there was a Latina lady there who had more experience than the general manager. Finally, I am still crazy puzzled by the fact that there were three interviews for such a shi tty job. Like, you realize this is a fast food place, right? You need bodies. It doesn't matter how good or bad those bodies are, you just need people to fill space. Three interviews is excessive for such a dead end place.

Pros

Learn alot of useful basic restaurant experience and great people to work with.

Cons

Company values making money over the well-being of the employees, to much pressure for the amount of work they are putting on you. not enough pay for everything you.
