Pros

- Free meal on shift. - Secret Shopper Bonus. - Fellow employees get a long. - Managers can be very understanding. - Tips

Cons

- Overly long hours for the pay - During training, trainers "Grey shirts" and managers would tell me how do something but each one would show me a different way. - Having a shift from 4pm-1am (which can end up 2am) and having to find your own way home is wrong.
