Pros

Compensation is pretty competitive if you can meet requirements for cash bonuses. Job security for management is decent because they are too lazy to train replacements. Low hiring standards - easy for those with awful history to obtain a job.

Cons

The bonus requirements are nearly unattainable. Compensation for all but management is pathetic. Very little employee appreciation. Too many poor quality hires.

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.
