Pros

Fast-paced and high-energy work environment. Coworkers are usually supportive and become close friends quickly. Flexible scheduling compared to many other food service jobs. Great for building customer service, multitasking, and communication skills. Strong team culture and emphasis on positivity.

Cons

Scheduling can feel inconsistent at times. Management communication varies depending on leadership. Expectations can change quickly, which can be stressful. Advancement opportunities are somewhat limited depending on location. Work can be physically and mentally exhausting during peak hours.

Pros

The other people at the stand

Cons

8.25 an hour. Slave labor. Expected to go out in inhumane conditions. Expected to love your slaves wages. Expected to do more than can physically be done. Expected to both hold people at the window and talk for extended periods of time while also getting their orders done in a fast food pace. Constantly understaffed, where management would then blame corporate for the hours. Would not let a single person go over 30 hours, as they would need to give people benefits then.
