Gain experience in a high volume environment with mediocre cocktails & food.

Cons

Little to no support from management when the bar team is understaffed. No appreciation for extensive preparation of ingredients when management does not order enough supply. Quick to blame employees for bad reviews when employees are not given the tools for success.
