Pros

Flexible hours Easy interview Can listen to music at work Free meal every shift Hour breaks Staff allow cigarette breaks A good system for logging hours and booking time off Friendly front of house staff Nights out after work Lots of students Tips split between everyone

Cons

Typical burger restaurant kitchen, greasy as expected Have to work quick and keep on top of things Managers sometimes can be visibly stressed. You’ll know if you’re doing a bad job, but as long as you turn up on time, work hard and communicate, you’ll be fine. Long hours Unfulfilling, the food you make is easy, not a “real” chefs role
