Pros

I did not have to worry about food. Met some great people and collected great old money. It was a steady JOB.

Cons

They did not want to pay overtime. I was never off on time and had to stay. They treat employees as very expendable. One store,would move hours around to prevent overtime.

Pros

People are great to work with. Fast pace and great for personal growth. Truly feel like your impacting the business.

Cons

No work life balance. Given the hours put in pay is horrible. Resume building is next to none, few take the experience seriously.
