Pros

Honest about where their food comes from Admirable company vision and mission Friendly environment

Cons

If you're shy or have a naturally "sad" looking face, you have to SLAP on a smile. If you look sad for at least a day of work, you'll probably be fired. They expect 24/7 enthusiasm and smiles. Even if you're just deep-in-thought processing and absorbing all the information, put a smile or enthusiastic expression on your face. You're expected to know everything after a day of training. If they say you can watch and listen or take a hands-on approach to learning, that is a lie. Absorb as much information as you can, and start diving in immediately.

Pros

Free food for breaks, young team, not many crazy customers compared to other fast food restaurant chains

Cons

Always short-staffed at night and double the work from the mornings, the manager has to close multiple positions alone, with insufficient and poor training because God forbid you clock in to learn how to work best.
