Pros

Being surrounded by cool kitchen gadgets and appliances.

Cons

Chefs verbally abuse and bully you and call up and cancel your shift at the last minute. The job is physically demanding and hard dirty work. The hours are random - either early morning or late at night and you’re only allowed to work a maximum of 16 hours a week!! Don’t waste your time.
