Pros

The best reason to work here is that its easy, especially if its your first job. And the customers are pretty nice

Cons

Its a franchise, which means we don't get benefits like you do when its a company. Also a lot of times there is only one person on front counter. The worst thing about working at KFC is that most of us don't get enough hours or enough pay; and when you ask for a raise, you don't get one unless you quit and come back.

Pros

Pros would have to be the day you quit and walk out on them best feeling ever!!! Pros would be to have rondell fired

Cons

Management sucks, pay sucks and they are not good to employees. They should close this location down. The good is not made to pass health inspections. They serve undercooked chicken, old stuff that has been sitting out for days gets sold to customers, and they spit in your food if they are jealous of you or don't like you. They fill out their own customer surveys. I have pictures to prove everything. Rondell should be fired as well as all of his other team members they steal money from the register don't ring in stuff and take people's money
