Pros

lots of hours if you want them and are willing to work. Discounts are good, and they let you combine them with the same coupons and benefits the customers have access to.

Cons

Upper management couldnt manage their way out of a wet paper bag. hard to get time off, even when you give them advanced notice. finally removed the freeze on raises, but are still stingy with them.
