Pros

I love everything about the job other than the pay. 7 years ago it was decent but in todays world it just doesn’t seem to be keeping up with competitors or better yet keeping up with inflation.

Cons

I’ve been through 3 different owners at this point. It’s always been my dream to move up to area manager and then director of operations. Seems like I’m stuck unless I want to relocate.

Pros

Job worked with my schedule Deliveries are a fun way to get out of the shop Fast and easy subs when appropriately staffed

Cons

in today's competitive sub shop world, this establishment does not serve any warm subs even though the bread is baked in house having to waste so many inner bread guts, even harder having to explain to customers why keeping the inside of their bread for their sub is an upcharge. Ownership: Favoritism promoting a toxic work environment, would not be surprised if there were incidents of quid pro quo, driver's reimbursement pay tampering, not being compensated for the job i was doing (paid as a line worker when i was the shift lead), difficult to get into contact over the phone, when in person they are too busy to have a discussion.

Pros

The majority of people there are great. Super easy job, not much to it. Easy pay for the most part.

Cons

The owners are stingy and not very personable appreciative nor accommodating. Quite detached. No holiday parties no gifts no bonuses no family vibe. Luckily you forget they exist most the time and build your own community within
