Pros

All of these are only related to the Union St Store in Aberdeen, as they hugely depend on the Restaurant General Manager - fast progress - you can become a shift manager within a year - if you want to progress, you will get all training in safety, management and first aid needed - flexibility of work hours and holidays during studies (worked around 30h/week during university) - great management with safety and people at the heart - a lot of HSEQ and customer service procedures - food allowance for breaks

Cons

- required phrases make staff sound like robots - going home stinking of oil and sweat (as in all fast foods) - minimum wage for team members (as in all fast foods) - some branches have ridiculusly bad management and incapable staff (as in all fast foods) - sometimes people are hired not for their qualities but because they needed staff asap (as in all fast foods) -> difficult to work with

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.
