Better than you think
Pros: If you have good people to work with, it's an easy job.
MeTime discounts on clothing, travel, groceries, petrol, movie tickets, etc, is very good
Good training.
Once you pick it up, you can go on autopilot and cruise.
Good first job, hires with 0 experience, and other employers look kindly upon it.
Cons: Very hot in the kitchen.
Get unlucky with managers and it sucks.
Pay is absolutely shocking.
Only penalty rates are 2x on public holidays (good) and 1.1x between 1am and 5am (very poor), no weekend penalty rates at all.
People you work with is very important, as the job itself is high stress and not enjoyable in itself. If you have good friends though, it can be a good time.
