Pros

they give you a lot of hours---whether you ask for them or not

Cons

they hire too many people, just to let them go. they make a lot of promises to move you up, when in reality they are just fine leaving you at the level you are at

Pros

Easy work to do, with various jobs around the kitchen. There are few strict guidelines to meet, and hours are very flexible. Excellent job for a college student.

Cons

The job is fairly mind-less and doesn't contribute to an advancing education. The pay is near minimum-wage, but that is to be expected.
