Pros

As it is franchised, every Subway is different. I was there for two years and I couldn't wait to get a new job. If I could change the management and location, working at Subway would have been a fun job in college. I enjoyed making sandwiches and helping customers. We also had Fred DeLuca come in one day and that was very cool. Plus, if your boss allows you free food it's awesome- I never grew tired of the food.

Cons

Pay can vary, you will stink like bread at the end of your shift. Although it's a popular job across the world, I was extremely embarassed to tell people where I worked. Also franchise can be a good thing, I think corporate should have more say in management of staff rather than just the appearance of the location.
