Pros

Pay is higher than minimum wage, 50% off food discount, somewhat flexible hours

Cons

The company is going downhill. Corporate is taking over and is creating new policies such as the birthday cake and being forced to awkwardly ask customers to take the online survey on their reciept. Managers are rude and condescending. I would not recommend this job unless you really need money. Also, do not work closing because you will go home about an hour later than you are scheduled for, which is annoying. I especially do not recommend this job to students as it is very stressful and they will be on you about working more.
