Pros

It’s a good job if you’re in school. It’s fast paced and always busy and the pay is high for the amount of hours you work

Cons

Favoritism is a big thing here. Managers and staff felt very cliquey and there was always some form of drama happening. Communication amongst the managers was also very poor. Leads were always micromanaging you regardless of the effort you put in. Unless you’re already friends with someone who works there, you will be trained and treated poorly. If you can’t handle how busy they are too you will be seen as weak. There’s a high turnover rate, and not so nice things were said about the people who left. They also hire waaayy to many people, each shift is only 4-5 hours and you can never get over 30 hours a week due to the competition of picking up a shift. It’s also extremely corporate for being a restaurant.

Pros

Awesome server team. All the tools needed to do the job are available for you when everyone is doing their job. Fast paced and lucrative income. Guests are happy to be there. Clean restaurant.

Cons

Management doesn’t know how to treat their employees with respect. They blame their employees for everything. Stuff happens? It’s your fault. They claim we can ask them for help, but get upset when we ask them for help. They don’t trust their staff, and tend to assume their staff is lying about silly errors. You can show them who you are as a person, and they will decide that you are a completely different person if they dislike you. No space to eat for breaks, and a huge lack of empathy for real life issues. They don’t say hi and ignore you when you say hi to them. If you’re a confident/happy person, they tell you that you are not modest.
