Vantaggi
Working for corporate, I was given paid leave when I had two separate medical issues within 1 year of working there. Simple, easy to understand job. Positive work environment depending on who your manager is. Able to move up and gain promotions and raises with higher training. Good benefits available, though I didn't use them. Fair pay for a minimum-wage kind of job. The higher-ups seem to care about their employees. One of the head honchos from Texas actually came and visited our store in Washington. My request for above min. wage was respected since I had a lot of work experience and was definitely overqualified for the job.
Svantaggi
I had 4 different managers in within 2 months of working there. There were periods of working there where things were very confusing because of moving around management, and even they had no clue if they would still be your manager the next day, but you just show up and do your job. High turnover rate of fellow employees. Working in corporate, I talked to a lot of non-corporate employees who were not treated fairly and who had very unfair managers of franchised stores.
