Do not choose franchise
Pros: You will make friends for life there, just like any other job. The job allows you to gain a lot of experience to help you in the future and set you up for your desired career path, as the skills you will learn can be applied almost anywhere.
Cons: Be careful when choosing a restaurant which is franchise or not. When my store was company owned, the salaried managers were the sort of people you could go to about anything, your concerns would be addressed and your voice heard. Since becoming franchise, the managers have received pressure to push sales as high as they can and in turn, this has led to a downfall in staff well being. Staff can no longer go to managers about anything and voices are not heard. You could put your heart and soul into the job, helping them out in every way possible, and you will get no consideration, praise or anything in return other than your standard wage...the bare minimum a company can give its hard working employees.
