Pros

Flexible shifts, ideal for students or those needing part-time work. Good team atmosphere - most coworkers were friendly and helped each other out during busy hours.

Cons

The work can be physically demanding, especially during peak hours or weekends. Sometimes understaffed, which increases stress for everyone on shift.
