Free car, gas, and insurance

Management needs to get their heads out of their asses. Ridiculous work load. Work by fear should be their motto.

Pros

Close knit employees, flexible hours, great management team Tim Horton's was my second job, first and only in the fast food industry, it was a great starting point and I would recommend it to anyone in high school or even university. They have great flexibility when it comes to what hours you can and can't work.

Cons

Uniform, heat from all the ovens/ toasters, rude customers. Most of the cons of working here were things you can't control, such as the customers and the uniform being extremely unattractive and not light-weight at all.

Free Coffee (If you actually like it), Free donuts and timbits on shift (if you're into that), free uniforms

Cons

Supervisors didnt do their jobs properly, owner of the store was very strict in enforcing quality control, so as not to waste anything, not even a paper cup. Some shitty customers.
