Okay as a starter job...
Shift Leader (Current Employee), Indianapolis, IN –
Pros: my co-workers
Cons: no breaks, no free meals, minimal benifits, no recognition
This company is okay for a first job, but they do not think about their employees as people. It is a thank less job. There are virtually no benifits. You must make an average of 35 hours each year to recieve a vacation check, and most people are only hired as part time. I do not recommend this employer

Manager for QSR
General Manager (Current Employee), Gillette, WY –
My typical day at work requires interaction with a multitude of customers, paper work, computer work in Excel and Word as well as the company's software, scheduling, hiring, training, coaching exsisting employees.
I went to safe at the plate food safty class and passed the exam.
The hardest and most enjoyable part of my job is the same thing, the customers, – more...  it is the hardest because there is a vast number of different types of people and sometimes it is a challange to make sure they leave happy which is the ultimate goal but it is also the most enjoyable part when you get to know your regulars and hear about their families and joys and sorrows, it ends up being like you are with family. – less

Productive, fun, and flexible
Combined Food Preparation and Serving Worker (Former Employee), Midlothian, VA –
Pros: free lunches, great benefits, fun and enjoyable environment
Cons: short breaks
Work would commence at 7:00 A.M. and end at 6:00 P.M Saturday and Sunday. I would work the cash register, make sure restrooms and dining area were clean, wash dishes, calculated monetary exchange, provided customer service, arranged decorations and furniture, prepare beverages, serve food and/or beverages, and relay food orders. Management was great. – more...  Everything was always in order and co-workers were extremely friendly. The most enjoyable part of the job was seeing the satisfaction on the customer's face. – less

Fun environment to work in with varying customers
Supervisor (Former Employee), Forest City, IA –
Pros: almost always busy, always something to do
Cons: too much lienency among higher management
Generally a great place to work at, from previous experience, I was hired in to become supervisor so I was fast tracked up the ladder to learn front of the house and back of the house as well as supervisor duties. I went from crew to supervisor with in a month. Management was fun but a little to lienent due to daughter and spouse working there. Most – more...  co-workers were fun and more then willing to do what was asked of them. The hardest part was dealing with two specific employees that did not like the fact that I made supervisor, went to higher management to diffuse that situation. The most enjoyable part of the job was working directly with the public and the college students that came in to eat. – less

Work
Crew Member (Former Employee), Wausau, WI –
Pros: discounts
Cons: short breaks
A typical day at Hardee's was me cleaning and helping the Costumers with the order. What I have learned costumers are always right, the co-workers where fun to be around. The management was unfair to people that worked there, I still did my job has I was told.

Dependable
Cashier (Former Employee), Harrogate, TN –
Pros: making long term friends, health benefits, and good management
Cons: long shifts, short breaks, and customers who get upset easily
A typical day was clocking in and begin wiping down tables, stocking napkin holders, and sweeping from the previous shift. You would also stock cups, lids, sauces, condiments, and milks. You would take orders and wait for them to be prepared and then take them out to the customers. What I learned from this job is that it was fast paced and a suitable – more...  first time job for someone just starting out in the workfield. Management was okay most of the time, you had some managers who were stern and unfriendky but most were friendly and enjoyed talking with you. Co-workers were most of the time pretty decent but with every job comes the people who try to upset you. The hardest part of the job was working back to back days and then sometimes lifting heavy boxes or crates. The most enjoyable part of the job was being in a environment were the customer was always appreciated and understood. Overall it was a very nice place to work. – less
