Pros

The wages are fair, and usually when I serve I make pretty decent money. The hour empolyees are very easy to get along with.

Cons

I have to work on thanksgiving for 9 hours smack dab in the middle of the day at regular pay. When I asked to cross train from grill to serving I felt like I was being bewiddled by managment. Some of the salary employees are very hypocritical. I also feel that as a majority a lot of people act very childish in not realizing that if you dont complete or do your job right that someone else is just going to have to twice the amount of work. I would like to see the managers doing more work and less favortism.

Pros

- You can learn the basics and more of customer service, by working here. - At the time of this post, they have a fine management team, that they have been developing for some time. The are competent, kind, they care about you and your well being, and they also will not put up with laziness. They'll teach you how to stand on your own two feet, and help you make things happen for you. -Some truly good people work there. At the time of this post, theres one for every shift that i attend. Learn from those people, learn how they balance taking care of themselves, the guests, their duties, and their coworkers.

Cons

- In fighting is present all the time, you have to be able to do your job some days listening to your customers complaints, and having to hear the nastiness that happens in the back. Its not always there, but just know when it is there, its heavy. - Server duties are just like they are everywhere else: the guest first, your sidework second. Learn how to take care of both so you can get out at a decent time. Also learn how to be able to tell somebody off for not taking care of the guests when their doing sidework or goofing off. You have to be able to speak up to be able to survive.
