Pros

As a first job this isn't terrible. Tips are typically pretty good.

Cons

Managers can be relatively stingy and can be hard to get promoted and raises, even after you've been there for 3 years. This is why I quit.

Pros

Usually nice coworkers, good regulars, tips can be really good if you’re working busy shifts

Cons

Over worked and under paid. General managers are hit or miss and if yours is bad, you’re screwed and they won’t be held accountable. Some coworkers are bullies with no repercussion. Unfair task delegation. Hard to get full time hours unless you’re upper management.
