Great first job in Canada but demanding workload - Team Member A&W Restaurants Employee Review

Pros

A good option for a first job in Canada. I was hired at A&W inside a PetroCanada on Avenue Road and Eglinton, and overall it was a positive experience. They were generous with my hours, and I even received overtime pay. I also had access to Sun Life benefits, which was a nice bonus. I would recommend it for newcomers or immigrants who are looking for their first job in Canada and are not too selective.

Cons

Food discounts are limited to 50%, with only free drinks provided. This job also requires a lot of patience, as it can get busy and demanding. Be prepared to take on additional responsibilities without a significant change in pay rate.
