Pros

Minimum wage is $20, the only good thing

Cons

Prepare to be working by yourself from 2 am til 8 am if you're a cashier. They used to have a policy that you couldn't leave just one person working—so as not to negatively impact sales or the customer experience—but it seems like they don't care anymore. They want to increase sales but they don't like to provide the necessary resources to do so (we always end the week lacking items).

Fun, fast paced, positive environment.

Cons

It's fast food. If that's a con to you, then you're probably one of the people that should experience a year in fast food.
