Pros

Applebee's is a staple in the American culinary industry. It's everywhere and therefore makes it easy to transfer to other stores across the nation. It can be light environment and an opportunity to make decent money with little to no higher education.

Cons

Might be obvious, but the company doesn't care for you. I've seen way too many corners cut and employees, including long time general managers tossed aside for the "overall benefit" of the company. Do your work, keep your head down and you'll be fine.

Pros

Short drive, Half off food, Will work with you with your schedule.

Cons

GM unprofessional. Not appreciated for your experience and what u can bring to the table. Tips were poor. Poor customer base. Antiquated POS. No patience to train properly. Are bullies. Heating and AC do not work properly. Extreme favoritism. Do not recommend. Oh and if you didn't make your sales quota, u were told you would lose hours. If a table walked out without paying, they made u pay the difference. Callous, unprofessional, employees came last. Sales is all that matters.
