Pros

The hours are great, the customer interaction is great, the locations are great. It is a great place to work if you are young and need a job that is not going to be your career path for life, but rather as something to get you through college.

Cons

The pay is not that great. You have to deal with rude customers sometimes. Working late nights is sometimes not that great. You smell like fried food when you get home. You are really hungry while working there due to the smell of food all day and sometimes you tend to over eat.

Pros

Good first job but don't stay for more than 2 years unless you get promoted to a manager.

Cons

Job has low pay. Won't give you raises unless they promote you, you are treated the same as a new hire even if you have 2 years of experience. Crew members have no say in anything, they claim when you become a crew trainer your opinion matters.
