Pros

The pros; free french fries if you eat them while the right manager is working.

Cons

Customers will treat you like garbage because their cheap steak doesn’t taste like it came out of a steak house, management will comp their food to make them happy meanwhile no tip for the server. Happens all the time. No independence; need a manager swipe for moving items around on a check, doing a complete, using a discount, etc. have to wait around after shift so they can count your tips and give it back to you the next day; stapled for some reason. kind of a hassle. This place is a lot of drama and you won’t make much money unless your me bartending or serving and you better be super qualified to do so because favoritism is real.

Pros

It's a job I guess.

Cons

The company sets unrealistic goals and expectations for food and labor costs. This pressures management to cut way too many corners to be a clean and safe environment.
