Can be a hazardous place to work
Pros: - Meet lots of interesting people
- Understanding the fast food process
Cons: I worked the early hour grill cook shift starting at 5am and was responsible for the cooking and filling of orders while the other 2 employees from grave yard shift completed their duties for their shift and took orders. This was great at first but they gradually kept piling more duties on me as time went on and I began to question why I was suddenly responsible for the things the 8am workers should be doing since keeping up with the grill orders was overwhelming already (especially at the switch hour from breakfast to lunch)

-Everytime I got sick I was talked down to for not coming into work because they couldn't get anyone to cover me since I was the only person willing to work such early hours. (despite them insisting that we should stay home if sick and NOT come to work)

At one point I was so sick I ended up in the hospital, this made the managers angry instead of concerned. They demanded I call the store manager even though I was in the emergency department in intense pain and needing to undergo surgery.

- Rotten management (No respect or concern for employee health or welfare)
- Too many responsibilities for one person (felt like they were singling me out since I was new)
- Exposed to extreme heat for long periods of time
- Cramped area with too many people often times.
