Pros

Overtime, Holidays Off/Paid Holidays, Monthly Bonuses, Crew Appreciation, Free Meals for Managers, Extra $1 when working Late Night Shifts, Great Crew Morale, Company Culture

Cons

Pretty low wage for management considering minimum wage in California is $20 and Crew can make an extra $2 if they are a trainer and an extra $1 working late night, so $23, which is the current pay for a Restaurant Zone Manager. Restaurant Managers make $24. Also, a con working as a Restaurant Manager at Raising Cane's Chicken Fingers is the unsteady schedule that we have to work. One day we work a closing shift, one day we work a mid, and then an opening shift the next day. It's hard to call off if you have an emergency or you are sick because no one can cover your shift since every manager is already scheduled 5 days/40hrs a week so sometimes you will come in on your day off and take one for the team.

Pros

-Fellow peers are often lovely to be around and helpful. -3 of 10 managers at my store are genuinely nice. -Flexible scheduling. -Our regular customers are very nice. -Pay is decent. -Easy work, even when busy. (Although it can be stressful from time to time.

Cons

-Only 50% off meals for crew. -Favoritism of crew members by management is abundant. -Bad hours, they keep shifts short if you aren't favorited. -They rely on the majority of their crew being teenagers and not knowing their rights. -Crew is often refused breaks when upper-management visits. (They will comp meals if you ask, but if you don't they will try to get away without it.) -Certain managers constantly berate and belittle crew members. -Because the company is growing more corporate and profit focused, it is becoming less focused on doing right by the crew and treating them well. -Everything has become more and more about penny-pushing and overzealous metrics. -The company likes to portray themselves as being crew-focused and wanting to support the little guy, but that is not how they actually conduct themselves in the treatment of their team.
