Pros

It's a company you can really stand behind. It has great, high-quality food, crew training that is second to none, a fun and supportive work environment, crew and management that is like a family, and a culture and message that truly cares about it's crew and community. It's been two years since I left, and I am still promoting how wonderful of a place it is.

Cons

If you are going to school while working, you may have a harder time getting promoted. I was working my way through college, and was putting my degree and education first, so I was only available to work 25 hours a week. During the years I worked there, I would receive my bi-yearly raises, but was never cross-trained despite my repeated asking. There were crew members that had been there less, but who had more open schedules. I found that they were getting cross-trained and promoted to shift captains within the first four to six months. I would try to find out what I could and needed to do in order to be eligible, but was only ever told that they were surprised I wasn't already a shift captain, but that they were reluctant to remove me from the front counter - where they said I shined. They kept pushing the training off until X-variable or Y-variable occurred, but it never happened before I graduated.

Pros

-Fellow peers are often lovely to be around and helpful. -3 of 10 managers at my store are genuinely nice. -Flexible scheduling. -Our regular customers are very nice. -Pay is decent. -Easy work, even when busy. (Although it can be stressful from time to time.

Cons

-Only 50% off meals for crew. -Favoritism of crew members by management is abundant. -Bad hours, they keep shifts short if you aren't favorited. -They rely on the majority of their crew being teenagers and not knowing their rights. -Crew is often refused breaks when upper-management visits. (They will comp meals if you ask, but if you don't they will try to get away without it.) -Certain managers constantly berate and belittle crew members. -Because the company is growing more corporate and profit focused, it is becoming less focused on doing right by the crew and treating them well. -Everything has become more and more about penny-pushing and overzealous metrics. -The company likes to portray themselves as being crew-focused and wanting to support the little guy, but that is not how they actually conduct themselves in the treatment of their team.
