Pros

If you work for a corporate store, lucky you. However, for the franchises I would say the best reasons to work there are: They are flexible with your hours, you get time off as needed (holidays excluded, however) For the most part people working at these stores look out for each other.

Cons

Wow, where to start... Sufficient training seems to be a thing of the past. DO NOT work here if you want to develop work ethic, as there are none here. It's just like any other place of work: politics, only you get paid less for more crap. The higher-ups expect a whole lot of something out of you for almost nothing. It's excruciatingly difficult to move up in this company. Communication is a very difficult thing to come across. Pay: ha. It has to have been about a year and a half since the last raise anyone in the store was given, aside from those whose minimum raise had to be raised.

Pros

-Working around a tough schedule. During the school year, I pull in 15 hours a week for classes as well as 20 hours a week for extracurricular activities. -Free food. As a college student with very limited money this is a great incentive for me to work. Shift Managers (and upper management) are allowed to eat up to $10 a shift (I.E. $10 for lunch shift, $10 for dinner shift)

Cons

-Very limited breaks. We are only allowed breaks after each rush, with only 10 minutes each and 1 break per shift. -This job is very stressful, dealing with customer service for over 100+ customers within a 2 hour time frame (Rush hours) -Inconsistent Scheduling. With Taco Bell being a place where people get there first jobs, it is hard to keep everyone around. People quitting and getting fired are an almost daily routine. In fact, the regular workers usually have to work harder because new employee training is a almost daily event.

Pros

For getting a first job. good experience. They will basically hire any at any time. its just that you need to be that person who applies at the perfect time. They do give you training. The interview was easy. They asked basic questions. they said that they will call back in a week to see if i got the job but they called back later the same day.

Cons

not good pay. Of course you would have to understand this. but only do this job for experience. get out in a couple months. they work on your ass like crazy so just be prepared to do some dirty work.
