Pros

Hours are not good. Pay is not good for the hours you put in.

Cons

Franchise owners are not bound to the same rules as corporate. Corporate does not support franchise employees when they have issues arise with franchise owners. 2

Pros

They'll hire anyone, even people with a criminal history

Cons

They will tell you you'll be hired for a bunch of positions and then only give you one. Barely any lunch breaks, and you can't bring your own food, therefore you have to eat in the bathroom or eat their fatty food. They do not give the hours they say they will, no set schedule
