Pros

Very simple to get up to speed with the most senior members since the sandwiches are very simple and so is the cashier system. You can get as many hours as you want if you're a reliable employee and are willing to pick up shifts when other employees need time off/quit/get fired (all of which happens quite often at Subway)

Cons

The turnover is incredible. The five months I worked there, I ended up working with about a dozen new people at least. The pay is measly at best, but if you want overtime, you can get it without any of the management complaining about it. The customers are generally friendly, but some can be demanding, rude, and condescending.

Pros

-Fair breaks -Time to eat a snack -Discounted sub available each day of work -Works around you sports schedule

Cons

-A nearly impossible amount of work to be done by 2 people in the time alotted, especially when assisting customers and making subs. This is caused by people not doing their portion of work on their shift. The result of having to many tasks to do in the time given is poorly performed tasks and half done jobs.
