Pros

Work-life balance, company values, quality of food, that's about it. The company values customers and they follow that "the customer is always right" crap. They are super strict about sanitation and food preparation too, Wendy's is the only fast-food restaurant I eat from.

Cons

It was a mediocre job to say the least, I worked there for a month and a month too long. It's fit for high school students; The hours sucked, I barely made $200 biweekly. For someone just working to make a few dollars that's okay but for a young adult with bills and such, it's not the job for you. The position doesn't require much, just be super nice to customers and smile no matter what they say to you.

Pros

The company culture here, which permeates from the top down, is excellent. Great communication between business units. Able to maintain a very good work-life balance.

Cons

The performance review process needs to be modified. Too few boxes to slot people into, which makes it difficult for managers to explain why someone was ranked where they were.

Pros

During my time it helped refine my work ethic and customer relations skills.

Cons

You start off with low pay level. The hours you work will all be tough hours. If you are looking for a slow paced environment, this is not the place.
