Pros

Getting to know and talk to regular customers. Had cool coworkers at my location. Free food sometimes when stuff from the oven needs to be tossed

Cons

Corporate doesn't give Management enough to staff adequately. My location was right next to a busy train station. It's great if you enjoy running a shift with an average of 300 people coming in, while only having help for 2 out of 9 hours and also being expected to cook food, unload shipments, count lottery tickets and the cash register all the while being hounded and harrassed by crazy gambling addicts and drunk homeless people begging customers and you for change. Oh and no break either btw unless you take cigarette breaks. So if this sounds like your cup of tea, by all means get a job here working 2nd shift.
