Pros

Coworkers were great, we were all very close. Discount on food was ok, but the prices of their food has increased without any of that increase going to the employees.

Cons

Management is a joke, and decides to gang up on team members to get them to leave, or fire people for ridiculous reasons? The temperature in hoagie bar is not ok, how can you allow people to work in that heat?! And most importantly, the pay and raises is an absolute joke. $.05-.15 cent raises rarely? Have you heard of inflation? The pay is insulting, I don't know how anyone works there.

Pros

I met some of my best friends while working at Davanni's. It's a fun environment and they allow you to be fairly flexible with your schedule. It's pretty easy to "test out" of certain aspects to earn raises.

Cons

The raises are small, they periodically lowered our food discounts, and the managers will team up on you to make your life hell if they want to. I saw many people who were fired for seemingly arbitrary reasons (other employees did the same, or worse, with no punishment). I also saw many employees who managers decided to force them out, changing work schedules to longer hours, scheduling on days requested off and forcing them to find someone to take their shift, and purposely putting them in their least favorite restaurant area for full shifts.
