Pros

Location is key if you want a good work experience, the location on Roosevelt & Wabash is cancerous, they'll throw you anywhere and train you for a few days and send you on your own without much help.

Cons

No help during the midday to evening Sometimes you won't get a break They care more about making money than your well-being and safety They hardly will respect your availability and throw you anywhere on the schedule They find any small thing to get you written up or fired Theirs more employees working downstairs than upstairs throughout the day and usually after 1 pm you'll be by yourself upstairs on cut fruit or veggies.

Pros

Fun Job. Time flies when working. Learn new skills.

Cons

Management does NOT care about you only the work you do. You will be overworked and underpaid. Very little training and they expect you to know everything within a couple weeks. Managers are lazy and will put their work on you! Work place is full of drama and creepy people that HR looks the other way because of 'popularity'. This is not the only location with problems the whole company is a mess. Constantly switching out district managers. Ops were horrible, they would come boss everyone around to try to make the shop look perfect in 1 shift, often making a lot of people miss their breaks and work overtime. Frozen loads and products would go to waste due to miscommunication between managers and no one seemed to ever want to fix any problems. Extremely low morale and high turnover. Stay far away from this place unless you're really sure you're only staying a while.
