Pros

Some cool coworkers A small check bi-weekly

Cons

Where to begin... We are not allowed to give customers bags, unless they ask for them We are not allowed to give customers napkins, unless they are asked for We are not allowed to use any napkin with the logo Jimmy Johns on it, because that is .0001 cents this company will never get back. Limited to 15 hours a week I cannot work within 3 miles of Jimmy Johns at any place that earns 10% of its revenue from sandwiches of any type Nobody ever stays for long, You will never move up in the ranks. They do not listen to requests. Every single cent is accounted for, we throw away sandwiches before we would even think about giving them to employees or those needier. I may sound bitter, maybe because I am, but this company does not care about you one bit.

Pros

It was a nice, friendly environment with good coworkers. Being the delivery driver and having some autonomy + the ability to leave the shop was pretty nice as well.

Cons

Pay wasn't great, and it puts a lot of stress on your car. Also, work environments can vary from place to place, so I wouldn't expect every single Jimmy John's to have as great staff as mine did.
