Pros

My boss is nice and awesome and is willing to work with your schedules or help you, but it is highly stressful and I am terrible at doing Bar so i am a bit slow there, the people are mostly nice and just really nice to talk to

Cons

There are no breaks unless you work more than 8 hours, and if you do a almost ten hour shift all you get is a measly 30 minute break whereas my other job would give you a fifteen minute break and a hour. everything needs to be done ten minutes ago sort of attitude, pay isn't the greatest and the tips can be iffy at times.

Pros

Free drink but only one per shift

Cons

Upper management absolutely awful and out of touch. DM’s and DO’s do not care about your well being. Preach this whole attitude of togetherness but it’s fake and they only care about sales and numbers. This company has gone downhill fast and I am actively job hunting.
