Pros

Good french fries haha, great people and co workers, cultural blending which helped improve my non native language skills, and eat great food, and experience new and truly awesome parts of the myriad cultures I've been fortunate enough to work with.

Cons

Outdated hardware and software, outdated mindsets about technology, too disconnected as a fast food company to be on the cutting edge which would arguably improve any company, especially one so large. Poor communication between the corporation and the franchisees, and many employees not having the proper education to fulfill the role they've been given creates a recipe for frustration. Not exactly a challenging endeavor at this point for me.

Pros

Experience varies heavily depending on the owner/operator you work for. Free and discounted food. 2 weeks PTO. Vision, Dental and Health insurance. Offers rapid development opportunities.

Cons

Work-life balance is nonexistent. In fact, the director of operations has stated numerous times, “Work life balance is a myth”. The company states you are required to work 45 hrs/week minimum; Realistically, GM’s can expect to work 55-60 hours in store with constant calls and messages when home. The company does not count any work done outside of the restaurant toward your 45hr requirement. There is no training for this position as you are expected to figure it out on the job. They offer $2000 per month performance bonus but are always finding new ways to disqualify you and move the goalposts when you actually earn it.
