Pros of working at Chuck E. Cheese

I liked hosting parties and occasionally being able to play the games.

Cons of working at Chuck E. Cheese

They refuse to let me host parties anymore. They aren’t flexible with my schedule. They are disrespectful and refuse to increase pay for my age like everyone else.

Chuck E. Cheese Benefits

Free soda, candy, and I get to play the games occasionally.

Pros of working at Chuck E. Cheese

I liked the busy environment. Good management, free pizza from time to time was always a plus. It was fun getting stoned and making the pizzas too! Playing games after close was always a blast! First dibs on any of the new prizes coming in was cool. Birthday parties are fun to work, but the hosts should get paid more!

Cons of working at Chuck E. Cheese

The noise level is way too loud! There really isn't anything more than that to say? It was chaotic, hectic, stressful at times. Kids are mean and demanding at toy counter, pizza times would run way too long sometimes. When someone would call in it would always cause an issue. Not much you can do about that.

Chuck E. Cheese Benefits

Favorite perk was always the free pizza and playing the games.
