Good people but unsafe and unfair work
Cashier (Former Employee), Radcliff, KY – May 16, 2013
The managers were great until the new general manager came. We had a gas leak next to open flames and they did not care about our safety or the safety of the guests. When it rains it leaked all the way through out the store and it was very unsafe and unclean. The hardest part of the job was dealing with the uncleanliness of all the constant grease. – more... The most enjoyable part of the job was becoming a manager and getting to do the important tasks that actually made a difference. – less

unprofessional hiring experience
Main Cook (Former Employee), Piqua, OH – May 7, 2013
Pros: worked with my scheduled visits with my daughter so i could see her
Cons: very shady business management and hiring
i have a felony on my record, i was hired into the store as the hiring manager was aware of this, and didnt mind. About 5 months in, they let me go because of it. I was one of the hardest workers they had, would take any hours i could, and didnt complain about pay. So again, very unprofessional about their business and very shady in the employment.

Could be more strict in some areas
Crew Member (Former Employee), Bowling Green, KY – May 2, 2013
Pros: flexible hours, decent pay
Cons: staff not strict enough
For a first job, it was excellent, but probably not the type of place for a kid, which I was at the time. I only say this because the staff wasn't strict enough with the workers. Other than that though, the work schedule was very flexible which was great!

very high paced and busy work place
Cashier (Former Employee), Asheville, NC – April 25, 2013
Clocking on and getting things done while handling customers with a positive attitude. Doing your daily tasks and helping other team members out along with the managers. keeping busy and listening when you are told to do something.

Very fun place to work, Family feel.
Crew Member (Former Employee), Miami, OK – April 22, 2013
Pros: free food, good people, competitive wages
I would come in, either to open at 10 am or close at 4 pm, and be placed as cashier or Drive-Thru or most times both and begin stocking and setting up my areas, refilling ice and condiment stands. Making sure the cooks fridge was stocked with all items and then wait for store to begin daily business. I would restock and clean as needed throughout the – more... day and handle customer orders and deliver them to tables. In Drive-Thru I would stuff bag with whatever condiment the customer wanted and gave correct change and a friendly face. – less

Typically easy job aside from management with supervisors that care.
Shift Leader/Coordinator (Current Employee), Kearney, NE – April 20, 2013
Pros: free food, good co-workers, and a good environment
Cons: no benefits, no vacation time, and poor hours/pay.
A typical day at work is starting off a shift, telling employees what they need to do, what I am going to do during the shift, and then taking orders and making orders, and then closing. I learned how to manage my own crew, the management (including myself) cared about the employees, and my co-workers worked very hard.
The hardest part of the job is – more... the customers. Hands down this has been the most struggling experience I have ever had in customer service, with a bad drive-through speaker and elderly customers and the companies overall lack of concern for feelings of the customers, it makes it quite a hassle. The most enjoyable part of the job is getting to run your own shift and be the boss. – less

fast past job, little training
Restaurant General Manager (Former Employee), Amarillo, TX – April 17, 2013
Pros: free pies
Cons: no training or help for new management
I Looked up everything I learned because I was never given any proper training. My employees all quit because a new, young woman was the GM so I hired almost an entire new team. My new team listened well got the job done quick clean and with a smile.
hardest part of the job was making sure i did all the management things right with out the training. – more... i loved when guest and employees noticed all i had done for the building and work place in general. – less

Amazing fast paced place. Great crew, great managment, stable.
Shift Leader (Former Employee), Owensboro, KY – April 17, 2013
Pros: great people and organized shifts.
Cons: over whelming at times.
I loved my job here. I moved up to management very quickly and was trained very well. The crew and managers worked together very well. There was organized shifts every shift. All employees were treated fairly and shown great respect. All customers were considered guests. We know many of them by first name. They could walk in and we could take their – more... order with out asking. They loved that. I learned a lot about how I wanted my work places to be. – less

ok place
Cashier/cook (Former Employee), Lenoir, NC – April 16, 2013
Pros: nice customers, clean place to work, flexible hours
Cons: too many employees related to / or close personal friends with management.
I loved working with the customers and meeting new people. I loved all of my job duties. The down side 1: was lack of advancement 2: Most of the employees there were some how related to or personally connected to the manager. This caused a lot of un-needed drama in the store.

Alot of production and hard work.
Assistant Manager (Former Employee), Espanola, NM – April 8, 2013
Pros: long time life experiences.
Cons: can't satisfy every customer.
A day at work was well worked. I learned what it takes to be a assistant manager and learned what it takes to be a store manager. Managment experience was a great learning experience. My co workers and other manager was a great help with everyday manager duties. Working togather as one unit made store operations run easily and smooth. Hardest part of – more... my job having unsatified customers. I know I can't make every customer happy but I did my best in trying.The most enjoyable is seeing customers leave happy and hear them say thank you! My crew helped achieve all the thanks we recieved with great customer service. – less

Good Job. Hard to bonus.
Manager (Current Employee), Texas – April 7, 2013
Pros: flexible schedule.
Cons: no benefits. no attainable bonus plan.
Constantly dealing with the lives of 24 other people in a low pay environment. You try to do what you can to keep customer and especially employees happy with what you can do for them. Hardest part about the job is inspections and not having a sense of direction in your company. Theres no "set in stone" goals. Constant changes keep you on your feet. – more... Within the times Ive been there which hasnt been long we've had numerous changes to brand operations, inspections details each year, and very seldom get anything we need fixed. The enjoyable part about my was the schedule. I made my own and that was the keeper. – less
