Pros

You can usually get a discount on BK food and living in Miami was fun for a summer. I enjoyed the people I worked with but mostly pitied them for their career choice

Cons

I was most upset to see that there is significantly less opportunities for promotion and career growth than expected. Very few of the projects actually mattered and I found myself doing busy work that never added value. If you get an offer, you do not know where you will get placed and you find out after working in the restaurants for two months. They hire from top notch schools but clearly not the cream of the crop since I had people from IV league schools doing secretarial busy work. That is GBS (Global Business services) and people get stuck in it with no career advancement because there is no opportunity to prove yourself. The company is also so cheap that they charge employees to use its rundown gym and I had to buy a pen and paper for work because they refuse to buy office supplies. Absolutely no perks like free dinner when I stayed past midnight or any type of happy hour.

Pros

Flexibility, hours of operation, type of work to perform, relaxed environment and standards easier to meet than other fast food establishments.

Cons

Staffing was always difficult due to low allowed pay range, performing a lot of maintenance work yourself instead of hiring companies or your own maintenance worker and being cheap with equipment.
