Pros

- Free food every 4 Hours

Cons

- No Choice of Hours. - Supervisors do literally nothing. - Not advertised as a cleaning job (you spend 90% of the time cleaning). - Manager's are disrespectful to their employees and consistently throw those below them under the bus. - Terrible Wage (Minimum Wage). - No opportunity to progress further up the ladder, Supervisors/Managers are often hired, never a Sandwich Artist promoted. - Senior Management is reluctant to listen to you. - Often rotated around different stores without permission, often told to stay later without asking permission. - Senior Management often leave busy shifts short-staffed to save money, which increases the pressure/stress.

Pros

Very flexible scheduling, especially if your manager is willing to work around all their employees. You usually get a 50% discount that you can use once a day too.

Cons

Direct district management at this location does not know how to manage people. He will not really do anything to help or assist until his supervisors look into his stores and what he does. He will shift blame onto any general manager he can, and if any district manager decides you are doing your job incorrectly or you need to adjust what you are doing, there will be little to no support in helping you become a better employee. It really can become a "popularity contest" when you work in store management. If you are a regular employee or shift lead, you won't really have any direct contact with district management.
