Pros

it is an easy job to learn.

Cons

65+ hour per week, on your feet, at a sprint. the way that the system is set up you work 12 hours a day without breaks. No sick leave, very little vacation, only at inopportune times, no retirement. I was forced to go into work with a fever of 104 for a 12 hour shift or lose my job. Jimmy Johns flaunts *clean and wholesome* but the staff is still required to work insane hours sick or otherwise. I have been required to work more than 100 hours a week more than a few times, with no pay increase and no thanks.

Pros

It was a nice, friendly environment with good coworkers. Being the delivery driver and having some autonomy + the ability to leave the shop was pretty nice as well.

Cons

Pay wasn't great, and it puts a lot of stress on your car. Also, work environments can vary from place to place, so I wouldn't expect every single Jimmy John's to have as great staff as mine did.
