Pros

Meet new people, get to have a 6 inch sub for free everytime you work. Very organized and clean.

Cons

Not allowed to wear yogas pants. Hair must be neat. Customers can be rude and yell at you for messing their food up. Management picks out favorite people. Must wear apron each shift. Smell like subway. At subway your feelings don't matter. It's all about the customer and making them happy. You need to greet them within 3 seconds otherwise camera writes you up. You will get timed on making a footlong turkey sub. You have 90 seconds. Be ready to deal with a mad rush and run out of food sometimes. This job is good for experience in food.
