Pros

Overal the flexibility was decent. Most of the time you could swap your hours with other employees if you needed to.

Cons

Very unprofessional. Showed no tact or courtesy to employees and even sometimes to the customers. I was shocked at times at the behavior.

Pros

If you have half a brain, you can easily move into a manager position, in fact, they may beg you to replace an existing manager

Cons

Terrible work conditions. I realize it is fast food, but come on. They leave the majority of the prep work/ cleaning to one or two people while the rest just stand around. For any shift over 4 hours, you get one 15 minute break, or three 5 minute breaks; Including 10 hour shifts and longer. The temperature in the summer is at least 90 degrees Fahrenheit, and at some times gets to over 105. At the beginning of last summer(2009), the AC was broken. They just fixed it yesterday(august 2010).

Pros

kfc offers a resonable salary for employees. They are understanding when days are needed off and are generous with vacation time given to their employees.

Cons

Kfc needs to pay more attention to its employees at the store level. A lot of decisions are made higher up without input employees.
