Never worked at a fast food place, but it is a miserable place. They have good benefits like matching up to 6% for the 401K and stock-purchase, Kaiser, short and long-term disability, accidental death/dismemberment, vision, dental, and 10% discount. But still, you gotta be in there for the long-run for that to even mean a damn. The newer employees now have the boosted starting pay but pay increases much less per year now. It used to be a grading scale that increased your wage a certain number of cents (in GA, places with higher cost-of-living might've been higher for all I know) per score. 'Exceeds Expectations' got you like $0.50 added to your wage rate, "Role Model" got you $0.60. Now the scale has been lessened to fewer grading brackets and it now increases by % of your base pay ("Role-Model" only gets you a $0.40 increase now). Glad I quit last year.
