- 4.0Jan 7, 2021Assistant Manger-TraineeFormer Employee, less than 1 yearRound Rock, TX
Pros
Liked the food discount and all the fountain drinks you can handle. Lots of fun great energy.
Cons
Pay is twice a month. Long hours and pay would be ok if they paid every week or at least every other week. No one really watching younger staff at night. They also seem to be very careless with female employees i.e having young ladies closing store by themselves. Opening early alone. Felt like male manger's could have covered those shifts or added more people for security.
