Great Company

Pros

we work 50 hours a week and are encouraged to make time for family. its ok if you leave at 5:00 every now and then for family. allows you to run your restaurant like you own it. Nice bonus program Great Area Directors that treat you like a person, not a number. we make our budgets and are held accountable, but are allowed to move money from one account to another.

Cons

As the General Manager you control of your store. its only a bad place to work if you allow it to be.

Poor management

Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

The original management staff was great, but they slowly quit or were fired. It was easy to make friends with coworkers.

Cons

Management did not care about the workers and played favorites. Many customers were rude and difficult. Workers were lazy and didn't follow rules or had other people do their job while they slacked off. Management was unprofessional and didn't take workers somewhere private to talk about private matters, they did it in front of anyone.
