Good work environment hard to move up to server

Busser/foodrunner

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Pay is fair for a busser position hours are good and you have a lot of opportunity to get hours. Management is great but plays favorites.

Cons

If you are hired as a busser there is almost no chance of moving up beyond that position because they hire outside servers with more experience over promoting within no matter how long you have worked for the company.

We really appreciate your review and are so glad to have had you as a Dropout. We really appreciate your hard work and know that the back server is one of the backbones of the restaurant. In the future, we would recommend talking to your GM about the goals that you need to hit in order to grow into a serving position, as we definitely prefer to to promote from within. If you have any questions or concerns please email hrcommunications@foxrc.com with more details!
