Pros

(sometimes) great coworkers, (sometimes) fun work, no uniform, free drinks

Cons

skeleton shifts during busy busy periods, (some) snakey upper-management who may gaslight you or may throw you under the bus (your managers are not your friends), hours are extremely variable (you need 2 jobs) and your availability will not be respected, very corporate feel to it and quality is decreasing, tips really arent that good (youll make more at an independent shop), training is bare minimum
