Pros

Employee discounts and experience for learning how to cook.

Cons

Demanding managers and coworkers who never cut you slack and are unforgiving. The pay rate is only 16 an hour. Working night shift and closing hours leave you exhausted and they still expect you to work the next day. Once you clock out you have no more time for anything else in life. Rinse and repeat.

Pros

60% discount saves me money

Cons

bogus. management is awful, i was put on a full time schedule when i agreed to a part time one since im a college student, hours are awful , understaffed environment, i sense some passive aggression between me and my coworkers but i cant put my finger on it. also this one manager only decides to help out when things get extremely hectic but then they go back to sitting down and being on their phone.
