Pros

decent starting pay, fun atmosphere, employee discounts, quick pace. there is never a dull moment. you can wear shorts to work

Cons

reviews can be very disappointing if you are expecting a big raise. i think they are out of touch with a living wage in this city. Scheduling is insane. open one day and close the next and then open again. apparently sleep is for the competition.
