Pros

Hours are flexible. There are benefits, which are becoming very rare. There are lots of great customers who are good to serve.

Cons

Very little upward mobility. Young white males are groomed for management. Lately, people with disabilities are disappearing from the employment roles.With all the emphasis on speed, anyone who doesn't measure up gets no hours, no matter how good they are with customers. Women seem very numerous in traditional female jobs (cashiers, bakery) but seem rare in other areas.

Pros

Started out as a good company many years ago. The company then went corporate, the company made tons of money. The company is now the top in the country but fail to realize that the hourly associated are the ones who got them to where they are today. So its a good company in terms of you know they will be around and that your employment is pretty secure.

Cons

It is a bad company in terms that they dont treat the people at the bottom with respect. *(please note that respect dosent have to mean more money an hour,)
