Pros

Free food if you work over six hours. Other team members were very friendly and I enjoyed speaking with them.

Cons

I would repeatedly get the lowest amount of hours possible, what is the point of being employed if when I got paid I would often get £64 for a month's work? That free food you would get would be amazing, that is if they actually gave me more than four hours a week allowing me to actually get the free food. The work is extremely monotonous and I felt like I was going insane every time I was on shift. They would make you speak to people and ask them questions as if it was an actual restaurant rather than a fast food chain and people clearly did not want to speak to me when I approached them, which is completely understandable considering this is a fast food chain. My manager was fired after around a month and it was never made clear who took over from him. The management style was very messy and in fact there was only a couple of people in managerial positions who seemed to know what they were doing and they all left and honestly I don't blame them. The food itself is awful and made me feel sick for hours after eating it.
