Pros

Its such a fast paced environment that an 8-hour shift goes by quickly. You also get a half na hour paid break where you eat a meal for free.

Cons

Sometimes standing for 8 hours straight can take a toll on your body. You come home smelling like beans and onions. You only have an oppurtunity for a pay raise every 6 months, and that's only if you do well on the evaluation. I was constantly praised for being a great cashier but went from 9.25 to 9.45 within 14 months

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.
