Pros

friendly working atmosphere, great upper management, good management. great possibilities to move up in higher positions.

Cons

wage is not as compeitive as it used to be. I am not making much more coming back than I was 6 years ago. and their shifts start at the same as min wage. it doesn't help that we have one of the highest min wages. and there are not enough stores to take in the amount of people that want to be promoted. also people tend to get stuck in the same positions instead of being cross trained as they should be. you can't learn or get better at something if you are never put in other positions.

Pros

The culture that Dave Thomas created is second to none. The community involvment really makes you want to make a difference.

Cons

The company no longer has the Dave Thomas culture. It has become a place of survival of the fittest and if you don't do the right people's bidding, they will find a way to tarnish your name. The entire company is not like this, just in certain areas where VP's allow this behavior.
