Pros
The flexibility with your schedule is great, as long as you're willing to take less pay. I would say free food, but that isn't a pro if that's offered as a default benefit in any restaurant setting. When you do get another job, no matter how bad your new job is, you can think, "at least it's not Stagg McDonald's".
Cons
Low pay. Constant turn-around due to other entry level businesses offering higher entry level wages for equal or less experience. The prices of the items on the menu slowly continue to climb, yet everyone is still paid the same. The fact that the store will still be graded on the same scale as if we were completely fully staffed, yet, the grader is fully aware that there's only a handful of employees in the store. The fact that we have to take time out of our schedules to join a meeting about how we should organize our life better at home and maybe it'll improve our performance at work. The example given : "Try doing a load of laundry every day, instead of waiting to do all of your laundry on one day." Within the same meeting, We were told people quit due to attitudes, not at OUR store, but at other locations, so we need to do better...because of other stores... I've seen people fill out applications in the back for convenience stores because of the higher pay, yet it's because of our "attitudes". With as little as we make, all we have is each other's support. We are literally struggling together. Do you really expect us to believe it's because some other store did this or that. please, ma'am. Gaslighting as it's finest.
