Pros

Employee stock purchasing options. And nothing else.

Cons

You'll never get two days off in a row, and when management is confronted by it, they'll give you some lame excuse as to why it's "impossible" to have two days off just to recuperate from the back-breaking work they expect of you from this company. If you're "full time," just expect to pick up the slack of lazy, non-committal "part time" employees who can pick and choose when they're available to work, leaving "full-timers" with all the bad shifts. Meaning, no work-life balance. You won't get an employee discount, but they're happy to provide discounts to students who don't even work there. Sanitation and food safety is a joke. Management doesn't care about food safety unless they're being audited by Steritech, otherwise they'll force you to put out ready to eat product that's been mishandled or not at temp.
