Pros

Free Food Bonuses Learning opportunities Inclusive

Cons

Busy Wild schedules, from morning shifts to closedown shifts the next day. Exhausting constant work and cleaning. Feels understaffed most of the time. Management doesn't seem to help ease the jobs, would rather shout down on people for not doing better even when super busy. You'll feel like being treated as an expandable resource. Hard to get bonuses due to points above. Audits fail because staff can't keep up with cleanliness and organisation.
