avoid
Cashier (Former Employee) - Austin, TX - January 26, 2023
worst job i’ve ever had, management is rude and toxic. the pay is not worth the work you’ll be doing. you’ll be doing multiple jobs at once because they’re understaffed

Cook food (Former Employee) - Highland, AR - January 24, 2023
What is the best part of working at the company? Getting off work ! No team work . Cooks had to much on them . Had to take out trash , do dishes ,prep, change times ,filter cookers ,make coleslaw etc !!! What is the most stressful part about working at the company? No team work people knew you had to wash dishes and would throw BBQ pans on sink with no water in them by the end of the night the pans were hard and dry !!! What is the work environment and culture like at the company? The back of the store would flood because drains were clogged . Hot water heater would stop working . It was very frustrating to work there . What is a typical day like for you at the company? Bring back bad memories filling this out I don't think I can finish this.

Employees are very immature
KFC cook (Former Employee) - Tilton, NH - January 24, 2023
Too many managers at least everyone is a manager. Very bad scheduling if you have a curtain schedule you have to go by don’t even waste your time applying here. Managers are always smoking weed on the job and there is no communication. You are their last priority after the first week
Pros
Free meals

fry cook
Fry Cook (Former Employee) - Gaylord, MI - January 22, 2023
pretty easy job, except for cleaning up at the end of the day. Nice being in the back cooking chicken, don't get bothered by anyone. Morning shift is the best. Closing at the end is a pain.
Pros
free lunch

Not really good
Team Member (Former Employee) - Boise, ID - January 22, 2023
There was so much drama with the management and the pay was absolutely horrible. I would not work at fast food. It stresses you out and makes you go crazy.

Easy simple job
Cook (Former Employee) - Dickson, TN - January 21, 2023
It’s just a simple job, nothing extra that isn’t part of your job that you are required to do. Usually the coworkers are cool and in good moods but at the same time, this is a fast food place.
Pros
Free lunches
Cons

Fun work place
Team Member (Current Employee) - Cobham - January 14, 2023
The place is nice to work at, you get 25% discount which is really good as well as free food during break time. Break is 45 minutes should be bit longer considering 10 hour shifts.
