Pros

Flexible schedules for Cast Member positions. If you are hourly your shift will end on time, no matter what. General Managers, not so much. 100% meal discount for management/trainers. Good salary, if you can negotiate it. Strong sense of team in the location.

Cons

Not enough hours allowed to meet the needs of the guest. No overtime, ever, no matter what. Extreme micro management. Inconsistent direction. No clear long term plan; let's throw things on the wall and see what sticks. Short term sales building mentality that erodes long term sales. CEO has no concept of actual operations. Senior management manages through fear and intimidation. Recently unattainable/unrealistic targets to bonus.

Pros

-They give you free food up to $30 -The benefits are fairly decent -High mileage pay for traveling -Lots of diversity and inclusion

Cons

-The worst upper management you’ll ever work for. Constant micromanaging. Sets unrealistic expectations with zero support or assistance. All while they take long vacations. -Preach “company standard” but flip flop on every decision with no notice -Constant labor crunch. Expects miracles with ~3 people on shift. -Will have to work out of your area with no added pay -Training is hit or miss. If you don’t speak up immediately about something you weren’t taught, they will blame you. -If salaried, will probably have to work over 40hrs will no additional incentive -Customers above all else. They are rewarded for complaints and you will definitely be punished. -Heavy AI usage. Even in biased customer surveys that will count against you.
