Legalized slavery
Pros: - flexible hours, everyone can trade hours with each other and the managers don't mind 
- managers are understanding of your other responsibilities like school
- students can leave during the school year and still be employed for the summer/winter 
- training is very thorough
Cons: - too much work, not enough pay! They expect you to be working so quickly constantly and if you pause for a moment to catch your breath, they'll tell you "what are you doing?? Go sweep the floor!!"
- everything is so dangerous and there's a high change you'll burn yourself many times 
- customers are rude, and rowdy especially at night 
- a lot of room for opportunity means other employees telling on you to the managers in order to get ahead. If you mess up, keep it to yourself!
- don't pay you for your breaks at all but make you punch out for breaks even if you don't want one 
- too much internal control; they check the cameras constantly and check every single day to see if you punched out for your break 
- they don't pay you for anything, I got yelled at for punching in before taking my jacket off because they didn't want to pay me for the 8 seconds it took to take my jacket off
- managers constantly yelling at you and talking behind your back to the other managers 
- you can get fired easily
