Pros

- It isn't boring or like regular retail or fast food. I worked as a cashier/welcomer, and you see kids do the funniest and cutest things - The food is actually pretty good. You get a free personal pizza each shift if you're a team 2 member (which is just basically a level up from your basic newcomer), but you get 50% off the entire menu. (Or you can just have leftovers when the all you can eat buffet closes) - As a high school student, they knew i was busy and gave me EXTREMELY flexible hours. - Weekdays are usually empty - Being in the Chuck E costume was probably the best part. It was fun and the kids are absolutely adorable. Although it is a bit of a snug fit, and if you have large hair thats hard to tie up or braids - stay away from it

Cons

- It is NOISY and flashy, I think it was a great TEMPORARY job - but not for long term. I was there for 2 years, and i dont think i would go back as a summer job. - Weekdays are usually empty, especially after the start-of-summer rush. (it can be good or bad. Sometimes it's very boring so you stay there and do nothing but stand there, or they'd send people home early)
