Pros of working at Burger King

I love providing great customer service and working there afforded me the opportunity to do that daily

Cons of working at Burger King

We were aggressively pushed to work on Thanksgiving and Christmas. There was no such thing as work/family life balance. Also great customer service wasn't as important at the drive thru. Plus you had to work at least a full five years before you became eligible for paid vacation and if the franchise changed hands you lost the time towards the required 5 years and had to start all over again.

Burger King Benefits

Occasionally you would get a free meal.
