Pros

Pretty much the only benefit of working at subway is that you get a free 6 inch. The work is only difficult if you have an incompetent staff, which tends to be the case

Cons

Staffing is typically awful, management hires mostly teenagers and drug addicts with no sort of background check or meaningful interview process. They basically just want warm bodies that do the bare minimum, leaving one person carrying the weight and responsibilities of the entire shift. If you go above and beyond, you will be expected to uphold that standard while everyone else plays on their phone and messes around for the entire shift, all without a raise in pay.

Pros

Very flexible scheduling, especially if your manager is willing to work around all their employees. You usually get a 50% discount that you can use once a day too.

Cons

Direct district management at this location does not know how to manage people. He will not really do anything to help or assist until his supervisors look into his stores and what he does. He will shift blame onto any general manager he can, and if any district manager decides you are doing your job incorrectly or you need to adjust what you are doing, there will be little to no support in helping you become a better employee. It really can become a "popularity contest" when you work in store management. If you are a regular employee or shift lead, you won't really have any direct contact with district management.
