Wouldn't Recommend Working here

Coffee bar/cashier/expo/foh
Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

Customers and atmosphere is nice. People come here for big and small moments. On slow days, you can get out early and enjoy the time.

Cons

In my time here, no one has ever gotten a break. You might be working a double, but there's no concept of breaks. The only way you can get off your feet on a 6 hour shift is by going to the bathroom. Pay is very low for positions that require a lot of work, like coffee bar on Sunday mornings or cashiers Saturday nights.

So much potential, so poorly managed

Pros

Fast-paced environment with a good sized kitchen with updated appliances. Employees are friendly and the pay beats many similar restaurants in the area offering the same job.

Cons

Wildly disorganized and every day the kitchen is out of stock of multiple items and/or items are not prepped for the cooks to use. The company as a whole and down to each location is very heavy on managers that you would have thought had never even set foot in a kitchen before. Every week you have a different supervisor telling you how to do the same job differently. I've worked in other well run kitchens before and I know this is not how it's supposed to function.
