Pros

Good company to work for a few years. Promote from within is a great way to run a company.

Cons

After your 1st few years, you are disposed because you make too much money and have too many benefits. There is a 10 year sabbatical that you will never get because they will fire you before you make it to 10 years or after you make it to 10 years and take the time off, they fire you when you get back and then you have to repay the time you just had off. Managers promote and demote at will. So promotions from within don't work if you don't make it in the new position. Lots of sink-r-swim promotes.

Pros

Free food for breaks, young team, not many crazy customers compared to other fast food restaurant chains

Cons

Always short-staffed at night and double the work from the mornings, the manager has to close multiple positions alone, with insufficient and poor training because God forbid you clock in to learn how to work best.
