Competitive and productive place with hot and spicy chicken.
Love to work and competitive and friendly staff. Popeye's restaurant is best ever restaurant for chicken. I personally love your chicken. Talking about your workplace is very friendly and productive.
fun to work and good to get experience.busy place wioth lots of work in one go.need to be quick
it's areally busy place to work however you will get good experience as the restaurant never gets empty and there is a lot of things to get a perception to work here.good place with a good environment.quick and fast service chicken served and sandwiches are made very quick on orders you will learn ways to handle the customer and make food at the same time that will, however, increase the efficiency.

way too much work for minimum wage
My location had everyone's training shift a day before we opened the store, meaning we had to become competent workers within a 4-hour shift a day before an extremely busy opening day. There were very nice co-workers in the first few weeks of working there but all the good employees quit for easier jobs with better pay. The main issue I have with the job is the management mentality of doing everything really quick, which don't get me wrong is perfectly good in a fast-paced environment to better serve customers, but when they ask you to do a 30-minute task in 10 minutes just so they can send you home early without having to pay you it gets old quick. The worst example of this was when they told me to do dishes and would periodically come to the back to tell me to go faster, expecting me to clean 15+ large metal trays and lids that are used to store raw chicken in 10 minutes, and ignoring my insistence on cleaning dishes thoroughly. The absolute worst thing about the job is they forced every employee to complete 10+ hours of online training with only an hour of it paid. So when I say that it is too much work for minimum wage, expect to work really quick to be sent home early, do tedious amounts of online training, and clean the bathrooms regularly, all for what should be an average fast-food job.
The most enjoyable part of the job is probably interacting with customers because I actually take pride in the quality of the food and it was nice making sure customers enjoyed their food, the managers left you alone in the lobby.
Small nitpicks:
-took two-weeks to put doorknobs - more...

Do these reviews help you learn more about working at Popeye's Restaurants?
Although you learn different type of skills automatically by working in this field but this work is really hard as compared to other jobs.
My opinion about this job is that in the very beginning there are possible chances that you will find this job so stressful and you might prefer to quit job, but my friend this might appear hard for you in starting . Seriously it is not that difficult and you will know soon if you choose to stay long in this field.
High pressure and horrible environment
Super heavy load of work with less time. You need to rush to finish your job in time and in doing so you might leave the dishes in dirty condition. They have unrealistic expectation of your job. I always struggled to finish my job and no matter how hard I try, it never works.
Pros
50 percent discount for food
Cons
Everything
working is fun

A horrible experience
