Supervisor/ Cashier (Former Employee) - Sterling, VA - January 8, 2016

The most useful review selected by IndeedI liked greeting customers when they came in to order. I liked that I worked with family. I like that I could supervise the facility.

Good
Crew Member (Current Employee) - Mansfield, OH - January 23, 2022
Good work place, people are nice. Managers work around your schedule. You’ll make friends there and have people to help you out. Sometimes it’s busy but it’s just fast food

Bad experience on first and last day.
Cook (Former Employee) - Elizabeth, NJ - January 22, 2022
Worked their 1 day. Began the day doing the computer training- to only get pulled off 15 minutes later( 1/4 completed) and ask to begin work. Training was terrible to say the least. Very difficult to communicate with non- professionals. In short, we just spoke a different language. I worked 3:30pm- 11:30pm with mo break. Very disappointed with the non- structured environment.
Pros
None
Cons
No break, no training, no structure and no communication

Fast-paced, easy job, management could use improvement.
Team (Former Employee) - Coachella Valley, CA - January 22, 2022
Working at KFC would be great for those who enjoy the fast-paced work environment. The hours are flexible, especially for students. The management could use improvement, at the time there was a lack of training, and the manager could be impolite. I did enjoy working here once I was got experience.
Pros
Free lunch, flexible hours.
Cons
Poor management

Understaffed and Underpaid
Cook (Former Employee) - Cheektowaga, NY - January 22, 2022
They are understaffed and overwork their crew members. If you want to earn minimum wage for constant stress this is the job for you. They don’t care about COVID spread at all. They will make you come in even though you have symptoms or potentially exposed.
Pros
Food discount
Cons
Overworked and no COVID plan

very flexible
KFC Team Member (Former Employee) - Waipahu, HI - January 20, 2022
The job itself was very flexible. Although, the management was not so great and a lot of overtime. There is little to no benefits given. Managers and workers are okay.
Pros
flexible
Cons
lots of overtime

Good for first-timers. Gives you experience. Not really organized which is overwhelming for me
server (Former Employee) - vacaville, ca - January 19, 2022
It was overwhelming. I was new and felt like I was thrown into the sharks. I did have previous experience working at a diner, but this was completely different and they expected me to know everything by watching a video.

Stressful
Server (Former Employee) - Chicago, IL - January 19, 2022
Working at KFC is very stressful. Customers have bad attitude. It's hard. I'm going to change a job. I don’t like working at KFC. I will find another job soon.

Jobs at KFC
COVID, managers, cleanliness
Shift Manager (Former Employee) - Inverness, FL - January 18, 2022
They don’t care about COVID, they will make you come in even though you have been around people that got it. They get onto people about not doing there jobs but turns around and not do there jobs. The store isn’t clean due to the lack of cleaning supplies, they didn’t want to buy anything because they wanted to be cheap
Pros
Some employees that work there
Cons
General manager and assistant not doing their jobs correctly

Underpayed and Not worth it
KFC Team Member (Former Employee) - Galt, CA - January 18, 2022
Not worth the pay at ALL, GMs and managers are useless and will leave the work to regular underpaid, understaffed and overworked crew members. If you want to earn barely minimum wage for constant stress this is the job for you
Pros
None
Cons
Low pay, no hours or too many no In between, rude customers, disgusting work environment, bad management

Fun place, depending on the people.
Front Lobby Receptionist (Former Employee) - Ontario Mills, CA - January 17, 2022
My high school work permit only allowed for me to work 16 hours per week but I was regularly scheduled for over 25 hours a week. The main manager made it a hostile place to be.
Pros
fun co-workers
Cons
everything else

Move on to something better
Assitant Manager (Former Employee) - Toledo, OH - January 17, 2022
60 hour work weeks for $11 an hour. No benefits, constant micro management and pressure from district managers to meet unattainable sales goals. Young people, go to college.

Doesn't pay enough
Team Member (Former Employee) - Gardnerville, NV - January 16, 2022
I worked there for a little more then a year. Everything was going good except they fell behind in pay. Other jobs were paying more for what I was doing then them. The manager there also targets the young people when older employees come around. Like there trying to get you to leave. The work is easy up front and the cooking part gives you a good work out but they sadly don't pay enough to be there.
Pros
Free lunch
Cons
Management.

Pay is horrible
Shift Manager (Former Employee) - Brookhaven, PA - January 16, 2022
Pay and management sucks. If there’s an issue with your pay they say oh well add it onto the next check which is every 2 weeks. Management is literally anyone who works there for 30 days or more

The majority of staff is very kind and friendly. Management is terrible to its staff.
Closing Manager (Former Employee) - Covington, WA - January 15, 2022
Management talked trash about staff to start drama. If staff needed help on the floor management would sit in office playing on their phones. Refused to listen to employees when they tried to mention problems that occurred.
Cons
No 10 minute breaks allowed. 8 hour to 10 hour shifts. Does not follow minor laws.

Good Entry Level Job
Crew Member (Former Employee) - San Angelo, TX - January 15, 2022
Like most fast food, this is a good entry level job or good part time job for students. Average pay and average hours for fast food. Can get busy during rushes but mostly laid back.

Pros
Entry level position
Cons
