Pros

Free employee meals (up to $12.00) from most of the food court Good pay Lots of overtime Good learning experience Its more than one job so you get trained in different areas (Nathans, Popeyes, Cinnabon, Burger King) just to name a few For big holidays (Thanksgiving, Christmas) Management would make a lot of food and we would have a little gathering we could even bring our family and for Christmas we used to get company sweaters.

Cons

This service are never closes! The moon could land in the parking lot and we would still be open is what one of my managers used to say... This made it very annoying being in a position of leadership because many times during snow storms, natural disasters, etc.. I would have to come in somehow even if it took me hours to get there (usually only took 15min) because many times we were the only place with power, food, and a gas station that still had gas.(Im referring to hurricane sandy) I would rarely get out on time specially since we are open 24 hours
