Crew Member, full time
Pros: Training is good and very fast, so you can perform with knowledge gained in theory and practice. The hourly wage is as expected for various age groups, but your wage rises the more you qualify and get good reviews from management!
But if you are a fast learner, enjoy a very fast paced food restaurant enviroment to work in,  there are many opportunities for you to progress up to management and beyond! The job comes with a lot of responsibility in the food industry and a positive, resonsible attitude will enforce good practice.
Cons: Very fast and stressful environment and even more though at busy periods especially in school holidays, on bank holidays, Christmas and Easter! Performance pressure is immensely high on a contious basis. Breaks given to staff varies depending on business of the restaurant.... and you often have to wait longer for your free food and drink. some shift managers are very driven and can act like slave drivers at times.
