Pros

Flexibility in time - they won't fire you if you want to go to school or get sick like a regular human being. They work with your schedule.

Cons

They are understaffed in management or, rather, have managers who dissapear frequently off the job. And if there is an issue arising from that dissapearance, the subordinate will be punished first. Also, while they work all employees at more or less the same pace, men are promoted faster and more easily than women, and usually have to do less in those positions. Most of the assistants are women, but I wouldn't wish that job on my worst enemy, since it tends to be 2-3 jobs in one for not nearly enough pay.

Pros

Always get 40 hours a week no matter what. Get paid about 25 to 50 cents more a week then fast food. There are a few good coworkers. The jobs are very simple, nothing is too difficult to understand.

Cons

Horable management, They do not and will not listen to you. they think just because they are mangement that they are better than you. You can even have better eduacation but it doesnt matter, they still treat you like you are stupid. They only get on to the people in their 20s, if you are 30+ you could go sleep in the break room and nothing is said, but if you are younger they will find ways to yell at you.
