Pros

The food is okay. It's extremely easy to get the job because they're desperate to get people because they can't keep anyone there for at least a couple months.

Cons

There's so many negatives at this place. The management is terrible. The procedures are unorthodox. The majority of customers are not respectable. The schedule is dreadful at times because they don't have enough people to have a balanced schedule. Terrible job but a good job to make you want to finish school and do well in life so you don't end up at a low-end job like that.
