Pros

Not bad as a first job. Learn a lot about how a business works.

Cons

No penalty rates for weekends. Expect you to work at the drop of a hat. No 8 hour break between shifts during the weekend. Unrealistic exceptions from management. Rude customers and upper management. Little recognition. Made to feel bad when I asked for holidays, or needed to take a sick day.

Pros

It got to be fun to see how fast we could get on the drive thru, we ended up being the fastest team in our district! My manager was really great at getting us to have fun as a team, and to leave our bs about working fast food at the door.

Cons

Basic service industry stuff. Nothing extraordinary.
