Pros

lifestyle is based around a lunch rush so mornings and nights are more relaxed. Making sandwiches is easy to teach/learn. Low barrier to entry.

Cons

Marketing is all over the place. Promo's that are ran are left up to the franchisee to bear the brunt of the cost. Seems like the brand cares more about opening new stores then helping existing ones be more successful/profitable.

Pros

Good pay, if there aren't too many drivers, and you're at a good place for lunch, you can expect to make around $50 in tips per day or more, and get reimbursed for mileage. The people there can be hit or miss, some people can be very fun to work with and responsible.

Cons

The upper management can be lead with too many sensitive women, who don't know how to diagnose situations properly, and take the side of the immature employees who get offended way too easily. The co-workers can be very young and irresponsible, but this is par for the course for food places if you don't have strong leadership.
