      Pros

      Clear and consistent hours. You get a shift you have to do each week and you are able to do overtime over and above that. Useful web based system allowing employees to communicate, order uniform and book holidays. Good pay. As a 19 year old, I get £6.86 which is £1 an hour over what I got at KFC. Senior members of staff are helpful and answer any queries well. 13 week probationary period with points where you can discuss any issues you are having and mistakes are expected and understood. Your colleagues are so nice. It's really difficult to be horrible to them even if you tried. Customers are usually nice and talkative which makes the day go faster. Free uniform.

      Cons

      No employee benefits throughout the year.

      Pros

      The only best part is salaries and the colleagues you work with.

      Cons

      There is no job guarantee. No matter how hard you work they can throw you out anytime. They like hiring and firing. And there's no staff discount, no bonus ,no Christmas presents.

      Positive experience

      Pros

      There's always something to do so you're never bored and as a result, time goes quite quickly and you're never standing around for too long.

      Cons

      You're thrown in at the deep end, but it's not too bad because there's always people to help. Also, it's extremely tiring on your feet, so make sure you wear comfortable footwear. Bear in mind that footwear has to be enclosed and all black with no big brand labels on it.
