Honestly, I liked this job a lot more than I thought I would.
Pros: - Great sense of camaraderie among coworkers. 
- Managers, at least mine, were all pretty laid back and helpful.
- Practical and organized procedures.
- Raise every 6 months.
- Good benefits (health insurance, dental, etc).
- Plenty of opportunity to advance to management.
- Working as a team means less pressure for the individual.
Cons: - Customers' attitudes.
- Very fast-paced and stressful. Personally I liked that. I realize most people don't, though.
- High turnover rate. You're almost always working with at least 3 new people who will ask for help every ten seconds.
- If you aren't salary, you're way underpaid for the work expected. Raises help, but are 15 cents at most and only come every 6 months.
- At least one machine is broken at all times. Get the fryer fixed, the shake machine breaks.
