Pros

You might meet some fun people and lifelong friends, pay is weekly which is nice. Some of the upper management are very nice people.

Cons

If you work here you will always be on call and nothing you do will ever be enough to satisfy them. They will tell you all the time that you are easily replaced and hold a monthly bonus in front of you as incentive that you can never actually obtain.

Pros

Good pay, if there aren't too many drivers, and you're at a good place for lunch, you can expect to make around $50 in tips per day or more, and get reimbursed for mileage. The people there can be hit or miss, some people can be very fun to work with and responsible.

Cons

The upper management can be lead with too many sensitive women, who don't know how to diagnose situations properly, and take the side of the immature employees who get offended way too easily. The co-workers can be very young and irresponsible, but this is par for the course for food places if you don't have strong leadership.
