Pros

average salary-benefits, very good training in the field.

Cons

culture is old school- lots of long time employees with no ideas or clues to best practices in operations. Newer management locked in battle with old school group, with no clear direction or focus. company is growing fast, but capital should also be used to improve older stores. Many franchisees are very dissatisfied with poor communication (cannot talk to a real person at store support center), mistakes on monthly reports, memos full of errors, facility problems with never ending mistakes that the field ends up trying to resolve. Working in the field is just non-stop fixing problems, communications, and other crisis caused by store support center 's lack of true operational support. Translation- you're always fighting fires out in the field.

Pros

good work value and environment friendly

Cons

The manager would call my phone at 3 am to tell me to unload a truck full of drinks alone, constantly, even though it was never mentioned or docked as pay.

Pros

Steady hours, free drinks, meet an assortment of people, repetitive customers that you get to know and like

Cons

Low pay, bad benefits, and mostly working by yourself unless you're first shift, and then only on weekdays.
