I have been working in Australia at Subway restaurants for 6 years and have been a manager at a Subway in a shopping center for the past 4. Unlike from what ive heard about McDonalds managers, Subway managers are VERY hands on; washing dishes, serving customers, cleaning and everything in between. I will Q&A some common questions to save peoples time
Not from what I feel, Subway has grown a lot over the past 5 years, growing to have more franchise chains than McDonald's so I think Subway now gets compared to other big fast food chains. Our usual customers are mostly regulars who just like the product and service, and because we are in a shopping center they eat out five or so days a week so they know they have to eat atleast somewhat healthy. Some customers just really like salad and hate that you don't have the option to get as much variety and amount as other places And others just think they are too good for McDonald's I don't think its really hip at the moment because there are so many, everyone just wants their special start up business that's really good and only they know about.

Hi Keith, Unless you are applying for a management position, you really shouldn't need any references and I would suggest just saying "references available on request" on your C.V. Depending on your age, references should be people who have worked with you or a teacher if you haven't any work experience.Just remember to ask if it's ok to have them as a reference first.

Not that I know of, our store is in Brisbane so it is "away from the action" so to speak. In Sydney there may be some re-evaluation but a terrorist attack is unlikely to be centered around a Subway store. Sorry but I just don't know much about that whole situation.

Probably when the owners of the store had to travel overseas for a family matter so I had near no contact with them and had to make some important decisions without the owners input.
To manage time I arrive a little early, leave a little late and make sure to get enough sleep. I don't do much work outside of my work hours.

Well at our store we don't offer the "Giant Subs" so the longest would be just the normal foot long. We did have one customer come in and order a sub with extra of every meat, So it was a foot long ham with extra; Bacon, beef, steak, turkey, seafood, chicken strips, roast chicken, salami, pepperoni and chicken fillet - something ridiculous like that. we ended up having to open up another foot long bread and put that on top so it would all fit and it costed around $35 or something for the one sub.

The point of this Q&A is to offer a first hand perspective on what it is like to work in a Subway restaurant as it is not something you can just easily find online. This is probably the 4th question that doesn't ask for my opinion or that perspective and just asks for "how mush should I get paid". It varies a lot and there are online tools that are easy to find and to use to help you with your answer. If you live in Australia, start here: http://www.fairwork.gov.au/pay.If you live in another country, I cannot help you.
Also the Subway fast food servers are expected to do the cleaning also, so there is no Subway 'cleaner' job title.
TL;DR - Stop asking me "how much should I get paid" you can easily find that information through a quick google search
