Pros

There are no pros for working at this place

Cons

Extremely strict, felt like I was working for the military even though it's literally just a cafe. You have to put your phone in a box as soon as you clock in and can't use it until you're clocked out. They don't let you eat, they don't let you use their cups you have to bring your own water bottle to drink water.
